Sampled at the brew pub about 6 months ago. This was my favorite beer I had at founders. Looked great, taste great, with all the right coffee, chocolately, creamy notes. Pretty good, try it if you’re ever in Grand Rapids.

Way good. Pours like Guiness from the tap and maintains the same consistency on the palate, but there’s a unique presence of coffee and cream, very similar to Kahlua, here that makes it highly enjoyable to drink.

on nitro tap at the Founders brewpub. pours black with reverse cascading creamy off white head. nose is mildly roasty with milk chocolate. dry chocolate and mild roast. creamy body that leaves a watery finish on the palate. not much of a hop character here.

In short: A typical and slightly above average nitro Oatmeal Stout. Pretty decent and highly drinkable but nothing special
How: Tap (nitro) at brewpub
The look: Black body with a long-lasting large tan head
In long: Again Founders have done a good job in packing a lot of malts into a beer. However this one just isn’t very tasty especially compared to their Porter and Vanilla Porter I had just before. Smooth round body, distant black chocolate, nitro carbonation creates a superb pillowy mouthfeel but it also softens out the finish too much. It’s better put together than most other oatmeal stout but it’s nothing you haven’t had many times before, especially if you go to Founder’s and drink a pint of their Oatmeal Stout every week.
