| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 17, 2005 The aroma was roast, slight oat sweetness, slight dark fruit, and nuts. The flavor was roasty, oats, coffee, and a bittersweet chocolate aftertaste. The beer poured a deep brwon color w/ golden red hues; thin lasting head and lacing. The mouthfeel was creamy and full bodied, a wet finish, but slightly watery. willblake (2174), Belcamp, Maryland, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 1/5 | 8/20 | Oct 8, 2005 09.30.05 Tap at brewpub. Cola brown pour, lasting thin head. Mite lactic on the nose, some bitter coffee, caramel. Pretty effy stuff, wet, thin for a schwarz, let alone an oatmeal stout. No sweetness where I wanted it to be. Not balanced, but has some decent flavors here and there. mikey67156 (9), Winfield, Kansas, USA does not count | 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Sep 22, 2005 A phenominal flavor with Chocolate and Coffee overtones. Very heavy and dark in color. SpudClampDawg (1027), Jasper, Indiana, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Sep 22, 2005 Pleasant sweet chocolate and coffee nose is soured by uncomfotable, earthy notes. This sourness shows up throughout the beer and doesn’t fit the style. The body is creamy and slightly roasty, but also acidic and overly hoppy. Just doesn’t blend well. Bitter/roasty finish is nice though. Overall, this beer is a mess. barleyPops (1079), Quad-Cities, Illinois, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 7, 2005 A pleasant stout. Not spectacular, but enjoyable. Black, brown around the edges, deep tan head. Aroma faintly of chocolate, good coffee note without being acrid. Flavor matched, lightly liqour oriented, more chocolate than coffee. Nice stuff.
