473ml can. Pours a hazy yellow orange with a large, foamy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Mild, sweet fruity aroma of pale malt, peach and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of pale malt, passionfruit, peach, orange, earthy yeast and floral hops in a dry, mild bitter finish. Light body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Juicy and crushable.

Black colour. Sourish Stout, not very good, this may not be intended.

Dark amber-brown. Thin head. On the aroma it has a bit of the barrel, some toast. It's thin, probably because aging an oatmeal stout doesn't make sense. The barrel comes through, but the oatmeal stout kind of gets crushed, has some tartness, some fruit. Doesn't improve the beer.

473mL can, pours a deep dark brown / black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out gentle dark fruits and light oats -- not getting much barrel. Flavour has some subtle tartness, light oats, no barrel character. Yeah, this is infected, but not egregiously so. It's light-bodied, almost lifeless. The barrels are not detectable at all. 1) Why would you barrel aged a 6% stout? 2a) Didn't they realize this is sour/infected?; 2b) Did they care? 3) This is a useless creation. 4) Who's the target market for garbage like this? 5) Don't buy this.
