I had a 4oz sample of this beer at the 2012 Frederick Beer Festival. The beer had a dark brown/black color with a dark tan hue and an average creamy dark tan head with good retention and lacing, and average cling. Its aroma feature malty notes with a touch of chocolate and some light earthy hops. The beer had a light sweet malt taste with a subtle touch of bitterness. It was a wet beer, which was too watery, and had a light mouthfeel with low carbonation.

Draft @ the brewpub. Pours a dark brown color with a small off-white head. Has a roasted malty chocolate aroma. Roasted malty chocolate and caramel flavor. Has a roasted malty caramel and chocolate finish.

Pours dark with nice head. Taste is very roasted. Almost burnt. More of a nut brown type flavor than a typical Oatmeal Stout. Not bad but interesting for the style.

on tap-pours a foamy light tan head and black color. Aroma is dark malt. Taste is dark malt-mild coffee, oatmeal, faint hops. Medium body. OK carbonation.
