tap. black with forthy tan head. mild aroma of oats, sugar and chocolate. smooth. nice body. coffee, oats and mollasses. roasted malts. very nice.

Draft at Denver Chophouse. Deep brown to near black with ruby edges. Nose is roasty, some sweet maltiness, chocolate, light coffee and some hints of vanilla. Taste is more roasted malts, chocolate, light coffee, and subtle vanilla. Body is light-medium but creamy and smooth. Finishes with more roasted malts, chocolate, some coffee and a bit of alcohol emerging.

on tap-pours a tan head and black color. Aroma is dark malt-chocolate. Taste is dark malt-chocolate/oatmeal, slight hop bitterness and acidic. OK effervescence.

Aroma is a concentrated roast malt and chocolate affair. Dark brown to black in color with a quickly fading, wispy tan head. Bitter roasted fore. No creamy non-bitter sweet stout smoothness like I was expecting from an Oatmeal stout...fairly hop bitter with mild roast bitter notes. The hoppiness lingers long into the finish. Confusing beer. Seems to have gone wrong in a few different areas. It has no oatmeal aided creaminess and little roasted notes. seems to rely mostly on bitter hops to provide what a good stout should provide with roasted malt.

10.02.05 Tap at brewpub. Sad, watery looking, cream soda brown, there was NOT a creamy head as this description states. Background aromas of faint peat. Watery. Something like rustoleum. Something dry and chalky in the background with some weak, weak roast. Did I mention watery? No way.

Tap at brewery. Bad batch??? Pours a weak, listless brown. Aroma is weak malt and sweetness. Flavor is weak chocoloate with a malty finish. Palate is watery. This is an OATMEAL stout???

Draught @ the brewery. Black ruby color. Light acrylic paint scent, gluey aroma, with lightly malty tones. On the palate, hints of light smoke and burnt currants are present, along with hints of coffee and chocolate and only hint of Elmer’s. This was the best beer at the brewery.

tap at brewery-pours 90% black with a small tan head that dissapeared really fast. big expresso, roast aroma wit ha touch of smoke. roasty flavors all the way. thin body. ok at best

looked alright, black with an impressive head. cocoa powder and cream aroma. quite sweet, a little on the thin side, a curious aspirin flavour lurking behind a little chocolate

Draught. Body is dark brown. Aroma is moderately malty (cookie, caramel, chocolate), lightly hoppy (grapefruit). Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Light to medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation.
