355 ml bottle. Pours a dense opaque blackish brown with an adequate tan head. Rich roasted malt nose with a touch of chocolate. Medium to full body. Complex mix of roasted barley, dark chocolate and coffee with a smooth dry finish.

Reasonably dark pour with minimal tan head. Aroma of oats and chocolate. Body was on the lighter side and the flavor wasn’t as dominant as I had expected. I wouldn’t say it was a let-down but it wasn’t everything that I had hoped for. Probably wouldn’t buy again but overall a decent brew.

pours a "can’t even see through it" black with a dark tan head. smells of coffee. Taste coffee/ chocolate like but without being overpowering. Has a bitter side to it but definitely sweet. I ate it with pancakes/ maple syrup and it was great!

Bottle: Dark brown pour with a nice light brown head. Always a fan of a good oatmeal stout and this one does not disappoint. Sweet aroma of chocolate and caramel and what else.. oatmeal. Light sweet taste goes down real smooth and leaves you with a feeling of wanting more. A great oatmeal stout.

I have had this beer before, mostly in bottles. this was on draft at Magoo’s in wexford, PA. dark Stout, with little head and not much lacing. Carbonation level was nice giving the beer its opening acidity, with hints of Grapes ,Pears,Spice,Nuts, and toast. The hops come through in mid taste and the beer finishes with lingering caramel and hops. Nice balance and not overly sweet. Overall extremely well balance and full palette
