Feb 4, 2007 22 oz. bottle. Pours an opaque black with a thick, rich brown head that lasted through the entire glass. Aroma of roasted malt and coffee was pleasant but a bit light for such a rich looking beer. Flavor of roasted malt, coffee and a touch of sweetness, was also a bit light I thought for a dark beer. Somewhat light bodied. If I had to use a word to describe this beer, it would be mellow.

Feb 1, 2007 12oz. Bottle: Sweet aroma of chocolate and roasted malts, and cream. Poured dark black with a big, rocky, but thin brown head that somewhat lasted. Good lacing is thin like the head. Opaque, even against a bright light. Flavor starts lightly sweet but finishes lightly bitter. Tastes of milk chocolate, roasted malts, cream, and oats. Finish is dry and long. Finish tastes of oats. Light to medium body. Thin. Soft carbonation. Overall I really liked the flavor of this beer, though it would benefit from more body.

Jan 29, 2007 Bottled. Good aroma of chocolate and licorice. Very dark body with a light brown head. Creamy mouth feel with a good deal of sweet malty flavor balanced with the right amount bitter hoppiness.

Jan 26, 2007 This was surprisingly very good. Don’t know what I was expecting but this tasted very similar to sam smith which i think is a great barometer. It poured well jet black with a dark carmel head. Taste of bitter chocolate and charcol, thats a good thing. Overall a good oatmeal stout
