22 ounce bottle. I couldn’t find a date of any kind.

Pours a 24 karat gold with a substantial head of foam that shrinks to aboot a quarter inch. Some nice lacing.

I get caramel malt, fruity hops, some booze in the smell.

Caramel malt and fruity tastes up front, mild bitterness mid palate, sweetish finish along with some alcohol and alcohol burning.

Medium body and carbonation.

A bit of a different bird here. I enjoyed the bottle and may pick up another. --- Beer merged from original tick of Eye of the Hawk on 31 May 2016 at 16:50 - Score: 8. Original review text: Interesting hop profile. Interesting malt profile. Great looking brew. Smells more malty than hoppy. Lots of caramel.

12oz bottle into a Corsendonk tulip on 25th May 2016, while on holiday in California. Very dark brown, OK, it’s black, the head a thin wisp and collar. Oats and barley malts rule the nose and taste giving a smooth chocolate and coffee type flavours to the deep body feel. Easy to drink and a very pleasant Oatmeal Stout all round.

Bottle. Blackish beer with a tan head. Chocolate aroma. Chocolate and caramel flavor with roast. Medium bodied. Chocolate and caramel lingers with light smoke.

12oz bottle from Beer52.com. A pale amber pour with a thin cream head; subdued tropical fruit aroma; but a big fruity taste in the mouth with a touch of pine resin giving some dryness; unfortunately the finish is rather disappointing in comparison with some zingy fruit, but a rather dull herbal bitterness. Certainly a beer to wake up the taste buds, but not one I’s stick with for a session.

Bottle from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours copper with an off-white head. Aroma of pie spice an veg. Near med body. It’s pie spice, veg, and maybe a chocolate note. Lots of cinnamon. Fairly bitter - unless the spice is confusing me. I’d say it’s one of the better pie spice beers - setting aside the top 50 or so. Certainly drinkable.

Bottle from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours copper with a beige head. Strong nutmeg aroma. Med body or close. Flavor is nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon. Maybe a touch of chocolate. Or not. The spice is the game. Pretty decent version.

Bottle. Rich amber beer with a tan head. Pumpkin pie spice aroma. Light malt and pumpkin pie spice flavor. Medium bodied. Light malt and pumpkin pie spice lingers with light vegetal notes.

Pitch Black Color, Small Tan Head, Does Not Last, Light Lacing. Toasted Oat, Light Chocolate, Coffee Aroma. Taste About The Same: Toasted Malt, Sweet Chocolate, Some Coffee. Body On Lighter Side, Thinner Than It Looks. Good. Worth A Try...

12oz bottle from Beer52.com. Golden amber with a loose white head; malty aroma; malty body with a crisp citrus taste; and a sweet citrus finish.

Bottle, as Redwood Oatmeal Stout. Pours opaque black, small beige head, decent lacing. Aroma is roast with notes of cocoa and hints of coffee. Flavor is medium sweet and light bitter, pleasantly roasty and mocha-like. Medium body, creamy mouthfeel.
