Commercial Description:
Our stout is full-bodied and dark. We use a generous amount of roasted malts to give this a hearty flavor. The use of oats in the mash gives our stout a creamy-mouth feel which is enhanced by a fine head from nitrogenation instead of carbonation. This beer is an acquired taste for the traditional American beer drinker but soon becomes a favorite for the adventuresome. 6.2% ABV

On tap at the brewpub on 10/14/07: Pours a mostly opaque black with dark brown edges and a stringy-lacing dark tan head. Semi-sweet dark chocolate nose has a lot of roasted maltiness and some doughiness. Body has pretty good malty sweetness and viscosity with some dark caramel and chocolate flavors along with a touch of dark fruits. A very nice sweet stout.

Black with light tan nitro head. Sweet milk and hop flavor, with maybe some milk chocolate and mint flavors as well. Watery thin but smooth, with a slightly dry finish. Undetectable aroma.

Draught. Dark brown to black, lasting head (nitro). Aroma is moderately malty (roasted grain, dark chocolate), with a note of raisin. Flavor is moderately sweet, moderately bitter. Finish is lightly bitter, lightly acidic. Light to medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation.

I guess I could have entered something special for 3000 but poor planning on my part. Tap @ CooperSmiths: Poured black with a long lasting creamy tan head. The aroma was roasty and ashey. Some chocolate but not too much. The flavor had a chocolate start with some roasted malt and dark fruits poking into the middle. Some tartness. Dry roasty bitter finish. Creamy light body. Nitro pour.
