Dickinsonbeer (2457), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA Jul 2, 2008 Tap at fenway. Pours a deep brown almost blacok with a creamy head. Aroma of roasted malts, black charred almost smokey- light old coffee hints as well. More roast with nutty chocoalte malts, light sweetness, charred acrid burnt malts, and an astringent long finish. SQNfan (353), Wheaton, Illinois, USA Jun 26, 2008 On tap: The nose showed some smoke, anise and day-old coffee. The palate was rather thin and watery without much depth or concentration. Being an oatmeal stout I would have hoped for a more creamy mid-palate. shigadeyo (1331), Southwest Ohio Area, Ohio, USA Apr 28, 2008 4/20/2008: Beer Works Oatmeal Stout is darkish brown (not quite as dark or opaque as the porter) with a frothy tan head. The flavor is roasty with some weak chocolate and coffee notes comibined with a plain, creamy oatmeal-like quality. The beer has a medium to body and a smooth texture. The finish has butterscotch and is mineral-like. Not bad, but not that great. I preferred the porter a bit more...
Draught at Beer Works (Fenway) in Boston, MA. Rating #39 for this beer...
AMN (94), Dublin, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 16, 2007 Looks good, but thinner-bodied than it should be. Lacks the strong chocolate/oatmeal flavors I was hoping for. Look elsewhere for a good sweet stout. TURDFERGUSON (960), Carrboro, North Carolina, USA Nov 3, 2007 On tap at the Fenway location. Dark brown with a nice tan head. Best head retention of any of the Beer Works beers I had. Aroma has a little chocolate, roasted malts. Flavor is similar to aroma. Slightly creamy and smooth mouthfeel and finish.
