Commercial Description:
Black as diesel oil, Oil Change is big in roasty chocolate flavors. A large amount of flaked oats gives this stout a velvety smoothness. Oil Change is nitrogen charged to give it a thick creamy head.

This went amazingly well with the meatloaf that I ordered for lunch. An truly tasty stout, one of the best of the whole trip. Mde with 50lbs of whole oats. Superbly creamy, with some rich flavors of chocolate and creamy cocoa. Strong lingering roasty finish.

Pint at the brewpub. Pours a pitch black with an fine tan head from a nitro pour. Aroma of roasted malts, coffee, and chocolate. Flavor is of chocolate and roasted malts. Very smooth and creamy due to the nitro pour. A very good stout.

Growler pour: Very little head, but tis a growler. The nose is strong with coffee and plenty of light cocoa. The flavor is sweet and pleasant, very little astringency and plenty of that coffee roastiness. The finish is good and smooth.

This is not an oatmeal stout - or doesn’t taste like one. More of a Guiness styled stout. Creamy. Rich head. Not bad at all. Bit of sweetness to it. One of Flat Branch’s better beers.

Draft, 8/4/07. Pitch black even in a narrow sampler glass. A thin tan head is still there after 20 minutes spent on other samples. Smoky chocolate smell with mocha in the back. Taste has sweeter coffee component, with s tring of chocolate and yes, old motor oil. Yet its nitro push gives it a smooth texture. Light alochol burn at the finish.

Great beer. Complex flavor, strong on coffee and chocolate. Good smell and a great finish. Terrific Beer.
