COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Speaking of stout, here's a real take-no-prisoners, hearty, small-batch ale from Freeport brewer Greg Sansone: Strong Oatmeal Stout. S.O.S. is a bold, dark ale made from a blend of nine malts and a generous helping of oatmeal. This full-bodied brew rivals any of our E.S.B.s for strength (about 6.8% ABV). A light touch with the hops gives S.O.S. a warm, slightly sweet palate that is memorably smooth. Strong Oatmeal Stout will be served this month as a nitrogen-carbonated draft and cask-conditioned special.

Draft in Portland, ME. Pours a black color with a creamy off white head. Nose is roasty with a light hint of malted milk balls. Palate is a bit chalky and creamy. Flavor is chalky malt notes with some light roast notes and a light bitter finish.

On tap in Gritty McDuffs, Portland. Great black appearacne with a good white frothy/ creamy head. Coffee, chocolate and roasted malt all in this well made beer. Possibly a little earthy but smooth and tasty. Great finish.

Got this at the Brewpub in Freeport. only available there. Black with off white nitro head. very similar to their black fly, but more concetrated. coffee dominates both flavor and aroma. some caramel. bitter finish. very good, but not that differant than the Black Fly Stout. same flavors, just more of them.
