WolfsBlood84 (103), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA Jul 29, 2007 1 Pint, 9 oz bottle - Pours a dark brown with hardly any tan head. Smells of oatmeal, slight coffee, and a little alcohol. Taste is almost exactly the same. Too watered down and not thick enough to be a great stout for me - also at only 5% alcohol - it should be hidden better. There are many better stouts out there. chimpscampee (556), Madison, Wisconsin, USA Jul 27, 2007 Remarkably creamy, oily oatmeal stout. Neatly defined like like 8 Ball stout. No annoying sweetness and heavenly dry finish. I drained poured Breckenridge proper ale so I was surprised for the need to deliver props on this one. Bravo. GeneralGao (3051), Iowa City, Iowa, USA Jul 24, 2007 Draft at Old Chicago in Coralville, IA. Poured an opaque black color. Head was two fingers high and tan with good retention and lacing. Smelled of milk chocolate and vanilla. Slightly sweet up front with a nice roasty bitter finish. Tasted of milk chocolate and lightly roasted malt. SturmWulf (65), USA Jul 21, 2007 Poured a dark black with a small, thin brown head that was creamy. Light lacing. Chocolate, coffee malt flavor that was medium. Flavor starts lightly sweet, then becomes a medium to heavy burnt malty flavor. Body was light, thin and slightly oily in texture, Low carbonation. Has a slightly bitter finish. An enjoyable beer and I liked it. However, it seems to be a bit thin, and the bitterness becomes a bit much for me to want another one. Still, a nice beer and its definitely worth giving a shot. If you like beer dark, thin and bitter this would be the beer for you.
ghouseguy (20), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Jul 18, 2007 Bottle. Got this beer in a Breckenridge variety pack. Quite pleased with this one, very good all around. Enjoyed this beer outside on a muggy summer day and for an oatmeal stout, it was quite refreshing. Good ratings all around, another great Breckendridge beer. Magjayran (1379), Durham, North Carolina, USA Jul 16, 2007 blah blah black color thin white head blah blah chocolate espresso blah blah creamy mouthfeel blah blah pretty good blah blah blah. If you’ve read one review of this, you’ve read them all. 505 (271), Echo Park, California, USA Jul 10, 2007 Mild aroma of coffee and general roastiness. Pours dark brown with a nice little tan head. Flavor is again roasty, not complex. Creamy in the mouth with a dry finish. JimboFluffy (3), USA does not count Jul 9, 2007 Hints of chocolate and coffee, and slightly bitter. It has a nice black color and it poured with a slight head.
