With its deep, dark brown-black color, thick, full-bodied, velvety-smooth mouth feel, mocha character, and, strong yet subtle hop bite, Barney Flats Oatmeal Stout is one of the thickest, richest, and most complex stouts on the market today.

Bottle. Pours black with tan head. Overall very good flavor with chocolate, coffee, oat, and nutty notes. Well-carbonated. A little thin palate-wise in my estimation but that doesn’t prevent this from being a classic oatmeal stout.

Tap at Library Alehouse in Santa Monica Pours with a lit. brown head that sits ontop of a black hue. Aroma is of chocolate, dark fruits, coffee, oats, and lettuce - weirdly enough Flavor is sweet, and chocolatey in the beginning followed by a watery finish Syrupy texture with light carbonation.

On tap. Pours with fluffy brown head and a deep brown body. Aroma of brown sugar, oat meal, chocolate and coffee grounds. Taste it is creamy chocolate, oatmeal cookie, nuts (pecans), light roast. Creamy carbonation.

Creamy texture, sweet but not too sweet. A lot of flavors: toasted, roasted, nutty, molasses, caramel, chocolate, coffee.

Pours deep dark void with 2 minute mocha head. The mild aroma emits roasty to burnt malts, sweeter chocolate and malt notes to go along with a dash of earthy oxidation. The taste begins both sweet and roasty and moves toward sweeter malts, black licorice and then some tasty chocolate notes. The chocolate sensation gets quiet nice toward the finish where it becomes more and more roasty and charred like.

I have been drinking this beer for a while now and absolutely love it. Don’t get me wrong I love my imperial stouts but for a nice sessionable stout this is the ticket. Creamy and smooth with a wonderful texture. This is comparable to the Samuel Smiths and quite a bit cheaper.

Bottle. Large off-white creamy thick head that mostly lasted. Good display of lacework. Black color. Aroma of sweet roasted malt, light creamy like notes, oat, light chocolate. Over the palate came roasted malty and light dry dusty grainy feel. Medium bodied with a soft carbonation. Moderated sweet flavor with a hint of bitterness. Roasted malty sweet finish with a hint of coffee.
