On tap at Kilt Check, pours black with a small light brown head. Aroma brings out deep hearty oats, a little roast, and a hint of dry cocoa — nice nose. Flavour is creamy, with hearty oats, some metallic notes, and some roasted barley. Hearty and fairly dry, with a lightly metallic and bitter finish. Old school and pleasant—like St Ambroise Oatmeal Stout.

Flavour is nicely hoppy and clean, with piney and resinous hops, some stone fruitiness and bready malt to back. Balanced well, with ample bitterness. Quite pleasant west coast IPA.
