090510-on tap-pours a retaining big light brown head and black color. Aroma is dark malt-licorice/chocolate. As it warms, molasses. Taste is dark malt-molasses/chocolate/ashy, creamy/oat, some earthy hops. Interesting for style/occasional, although not my style. 3.4 *090510-Peoples Pint Oatmeal Stout–on cask-pours a tan ring for a head and black color. Aroma is dark malt-bolder than tap and alcohol and earthier. 090514-22oz bottle-pours a rich light brown head and black color. Aroma is very sweet clashing with earthy, rubbery, chocolate/molasses/ashy-dark malt, acidic. As it warms it doesn’t clash. Taste is ashy/coffee-dark malt, acidic/earthy/bitter hops, some alcohol, powdery/gritty mouth feel. Based on having at cellar temperature. 3.1

2008 Bottle #473 thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a very small white head over a black as tar body. Aroma is rich with chocolate, vanilla and a coffee finish. Some fudge and nuts too. Very sweet. Taste is bitter up front with a slight lactic note and very bitter, pure baking chocolate. A bit of coffee. Low residual sugars. Silky mouthfeel, light bubbles.
