COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Beware! Beware! The Double Oatmeal Russian Imperial Stout will destroy your taste buds like no other. More hops and more malt than BORIS create a super deep roasted and full bodied flavor, making this the great, great grand daddy of all stout styles.

Bottle from Bittermestupid. Pours black with some quickly fading tan head. Aroma is nice chocolate and a little malt. Flavor is chocolate, malts and is blended very well. Their is a small kick that lets you taste the abv at the end. Very nice mouthfeel.

Lowenbrau (998) - Asturias, Oviedo, SPAIN - MAY 1, 2013
65cl bottle. Amazing one. Hoppy, coffee, cacao aromas. Quite bitter, smooth, creamy texture. Pours very dark, with nice vanishing tan head (maybe fades away too fast). Full bodied, soft carbonation. Taste is coffee, hoppy, some vanilla and caramel. Really well balanced and integrated flavours.

22 oz. bottle. Served in a snifter. Pours a jet black with a tan head. Quite literally, it looks like motor oil. Aromas of coffee and alcohol. Thick mouthfeel. Very forward roasted malt flavors. Hop presence is evident but not overpowering. Smooth finish. This is a beautiful Stout.
