Commercial Description:
This dark ale is a hearty and satisfying reward for those of us who embrace the frozen tundra. Uncut oatmeal fresh from Chilton, Wisconsin gives this Stout a "sink into it" smoothness that slides you into its depth. Handcrafted English Chocolate malt and Wisconsin Victory malt combine to balance this robust ale. Expect this ale to pour a luxurious rich head over a rich black ruby body. The powerful malt bouquet will greet you as you tip this silky smoothness from your glass. Our Oatmeal Stout is handcrafted in the time-honored traditions. Serve just above room temperature and relax -- road construction season will soon return.

Pours a dark chocolate color with a fast disappearing head. First I get a grassy hop aroma with chocolate next. Taste is more malts; bitter roasts and mildly sweet. Body is fairly thin with a mild after-taste. Standard sweet stout.

12 oz. bottle from Tmoney99. Pours a clear dark brown with ruby highlights and a medium sized tan head. The aroma is moderately sweet milk chocolate, mild roasted malts, slightly nutty, all with a light earthiness. The flavor opens with a nice combination of semi sweet chocolate and roasted malts. A black coffee bitterness assumes control in the finish. Maybe a tad thin in the mouthfeel department, but a solid beer nonetheless.

Pours a nut brown with a thin tan head some spotted laceing along the sides of the glass. The nose is not very strong and it has some hints of roasted malt mixed with earthy hops. The flavor is slightly sweet with a roasted and bitter after taste. Overall it is nice with a good amount of carbonation and a nice bitter sweet flavor but the body is lacking a little bit.

luxurious body gives way to silky coating mouthfeel. good start. aroma is plenty strong of chocolate. flavor is the same and sticks around. shocking this is half decent despite the low ABV. this aint too bad at all, though it greets me more as just a nice porter then dark malts based on oats. usually i temper my poor new glarus ratings with the fact that they use locally made ingredients. somehow despite the nice thought it doesnt help my brew seem any more appealing. i split a sampler 12 pack with my brother. we couldnt split the four trios of beers equally so i got only one of these but got stuck with 2 spotted cows. should have known better. this is what i needed right now.

Bottle courtesy TheCheeseMan. Dark brown color with a dense dark khaki head. Light chocolate and nutty aroma, mild roast background. A bit thin on the palate, but the taste is nice, a bit more of the roast comes out to meet the chocolate sweetness. Nice and sessionable.
