Nitro at Newark location. Poured into a pint glass, black in color, mocha colored cascading head. Sweet aroma, with some roasted malts. Taste is light roasted malts, oat, light chocolate with a overall sweetness. Not bad....got better as it warmed up. Texture was nice... small nitro bubbles bounce off your tounge and sit there. Overall no southern tier oat but still a decent brew.

3.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Nitro, Wilmington. Opaque black with a big, creamy tan head. Nitrogen pretty much killed the aroma except for some faint chocolatiness. Flavor is quite nice, with a ton of roasted malts and a distinct oaty character. Mouthfeel is full for a nitro’ed beer. Pretty good.
