3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/2015 cl. draft @ Deliriium Hoppy Loft // first keg was a bit over the hill to say it subtly - nothing bad about the place becuase once I told them, a new keg was put up and I got a replacement glass but the first one resulted in a not bed old bruin type of beer // lightly reddish black with a small tanned head // smells vinous, roast, syrup, berries, gummy bears and chocolate // tastes like sour gummy bears, vineous blended with roast, malt, syrup, licorice, sweet coffee finish // watery with soft carb. // obviously this one doesn’t count towards the rating, honestly I would rate both same, maybe my pallet is just bad // correct one is dark brown, tanned head // mocha smell, light roast, choco mouse, weaker roast and dark fruits // mellow roast taste, bitter herbal, lots of licorice, hoppy, chocolate, cold coffee, chocolate mouse, milk chocolate, bit weak and not terrible impressive within style // m/m body

My 200th rating. Pours a nice brown amber beer with a good white head. I smell resins. Taste like coffee and creamy. Also a bit roasty. The palate is good.

Solid but not overly impressive oatmeal stout from this O.G. Cali bunch. Nice inky pour, though the body looks as if it’s not quite as silky or robust as the best examples of this style usually are. Nice nose of soft chocolate and dry roasts. A bit thin indeed, as it turns out. Flavors are pretty nice, with moderate hops and some rolled oats coming together well with the chocolate notes. Again: solid.

Bottle 335ml @ home.
Whoa, it’s one of my fav beer styles. Full appretiation on the warmer side only! Don’t drink it when it’s cold!!!
App: pitch black/very dark brown with very nice, beige, small bubbled & low reducing but lasting head. Aroma: upftont typical english yeast, all of dark malts, hint of plumes or other dark fruits, maybe alc too. Mf&taste: mild carbonation, very solid sweetish-malty backbone, followed by roasty, coffie&bitter sweet chocolate. Silky, smooth aftertaste with hop bitterness and slight warming - without excessive sensation. Alcohol very well hidden :) Overall: excellent o/m stout! Could be even session beer, but beware of almost 6% abv :)

Well balanced color, medium foam, strong dark color. Roast malt smell strong through nose. Even tastes of oatmeal, comes through as beer warms up. Ok flavor, I prefer it cold. Overall good.

Negra, com espuma café com leite de boa formação e persistência. Noa aroma, malte, caramelo e café. Mó sabor, cafe predominante e chocolate amargo. De consistência quase cremosa, aveludada. Baixo para médio amargor. Sabor de cafe amargo que persiste na boca. Muito boa.

08-MAY-2013, can @home, from systembolaget, brought home by Marianne, thx:-)
Black with creamy off-white head.
Aroma is chocolate and vanilla.
Taste is slightly roasted with again chocolate and vanilla and a touch of spice.
Very smooth and creamy body and soft carbonation. Perhaps the best part of this. Really easy drinking. I like this, and would rebuy if I lived nearby.
4.7 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
This quite probably the best Oatmeal Stout in america, and a contender for best over all. Pleasant mix of fresh oats and roasted chocolate combine for a very pleasing smell. A decent head with excellent lacing in a 16oz pint glass.
The taste is thick and savory, nutty sweetness blends in well to form an almost perfect combination, there is a hop presence but its mild enough the bitterness doesn’t interfere.
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 11/20
Aroma: Roasted malt, coffee and chocolate.
Appearance: Brown/black with reddish highlights and a brown head.
Flavor: Mocha, caramel and dark malts - just enough hop bitterness to keep it balanced.
Palate: Medium to full bodied with a smooth, oily texture and moderate carbonation.
Overall: Very nice oatmeal stout if not the most exciting.
