A very tasty double oatmeal stout. A little light on the classic stout elements, but a lovely sipper nonetheless. The nose is fruity with sweet malt and a touch of booze. The taste follows the same lines, leading with a rich dark fruit sweetness. Tastes of milk chocolate and coffee are there, but pretty understated. The oatmeal thickens it up and extends the taste nicely. De Molen knows how to do rich, thick sweet beers!

Pours a murky copper/amber colour with a beige head. Complex aroma of yeast, malts, citrus fruits (noticeable grapefruit), and plenty of hops. The hop is strong in this one. Dry hoppy, herbal finish. American Double / Imperial IPA-ish. Nice brew.

Pours a pitch black with barely a head. Aroma of roasted malts, coffee, liquorice. Flavour is more coffee, coffee, coffee... No carbonation to speak of. A bit thin though, would have been great with a fuller body. Bitter coffee finish. Nice brew, enjoyed it.

Hoppy aroma of light malts, citrus, tropical fruits. Flavour is bready, mild hops, tropical fruits. Slightly watery. Refreshing and highly drinkable session APA, would drink again.

Fruity aroma of citrus, orange peel, grapefruit, pine, malts, some resin. Flavour is fruity and hoppy with a long lasting bitterness in the aftertaste. Nice thick body. This DIPA has the kind of balance between fruits and malts that I enjoy the best. Well done, Rooie Dop.

Aroma of dark malts, lots of roasted coffee, espresso, dark chocolate. Flavour is medium sweet with a moderate to medium coffee bitter finish. A bit sweet, but the coffee flavour is remarkable.

Bottle at home. Aroma is fruity hops, tropical fruits, grapefruit, light malt, citrus, slight herbal notes. Flavour is light to moderate sweet and medium bitter. Body is medium. Maybe a bit less impressive than the original, but still pretty tasty.
