Breckenridge Oatmeal Stout

Brewed by Breckenridge Brewery
Style: Stout
Denver, Colorado USA

12 oz bottle. Opaque black with small tan head. Aroma is soft coffee and dark chocolate malt. Flavor is biting dark roasted and chocolate malt, slightly medicinal. Medium to thin body and creamy. Unappealing and frustratingly thin.

Pretty good stout. A tad thing. Reminiscent of Samuel Smith’s Imperial Stout, but not quite as good.

Bottle. Pours a dark brown with a small and diminishing head that makes tiny amoebic shapes as it dissipated. Aroma is slightly sour with some roast coffee and a bit of chocolate. Flavor is very dry, a bit sour with some nice dark malt flavor. Mouthfeel is almost perfect for the style; a bit oily as it should be. Probably the least sweet sweet stout I’ve ever tasted, which leaves me dissapointed. Looks rather emasculated in my Samuel Smith’s pint glass both because it’s a 12oz beer in an imperial pint glass and also because it fails to live up to the original Oatmeal Stout. It’s ok though, I have a Rogue Chocolate coming up next.

its rare that I come across a stout that I dont like... even the imperials are ok, but this one was a real disappointment buth for me and my wife who called it "sad" tasting!

Draft. Small brown and frothy head atop a black body. Malty aroma of roast and dark chocolate with some notes of caramel. The flavor is moderately bitter and only slightly sweet. It finishes acidic to the point of metallic. Medium body and thin texture, but the carbonation is fairly lively. Drinkable, but uninspired.

Found this one bottled in a multipack from Binny’s in St. Charles, Illinois. Very dark brown, opaque pour with a nice thick tan head, bitter chocolate and coffee nose with a very nice maltiness, some off hints of yeast, and sweetness of bitter almonds and chocolate. Pretty good sweet stout.

Bottle. A deep red makes this beer look black with a thin tan head to top it off. Malty aroma with some burnt coffee and chocolate. Flavor remains in the same area - sweet chocolate and coffee give way to a bitter finish.
