Feb 3, 2009 Taste 2/9 Bottle. Looks: Black and opaque with a nice foam. Aroma: Roasted and toasted malt in the from of coffee and chocolate. Sweetness and freshness. Taste: Smooth mouthfeel from the oatmeal with a balance from the acidity. A little simple but very drinkable for a fan of dark roasts.

Jan 13, 2009 12oz bottle poured into a shaker. NHTP pours very dark brown with a smallish off-white head that settles quickly. It has an aroma of burnt popcorn, oak and coffee. The body is a little watery for a stout. The flavor is nice and enjoyable if a bit boring. Charcoal sweetened with chocolate is the predominate taste. The finish lingers with a carbonated hop-filled bitterness. This is an average beer and falls short of my local favorite, Schlafly Oatmeal Stout.

Jan 13, 2009 I don’t drink many session stouts, but I won’t have any problem with the next five of these dark, sweet, and roasty mother(ahem)’s.
