Bottle pours dark brown with little tan head. Not much aroma but slight malt. I havent tried many stouts and this has a good clean malt flavor. Really smooth and not what I expected from a dark stout beer. Will buy again.

Oct 10, 2008 55cl. Aroma is rich with roasted chocolate malt--lightly sweet and deep with very mild hop aromas. Caramel head quickly swallowed by the beer. Pleasantly sweet with a balanced bittern finish. It’s a bit viscous and has a very even and pleasing mouth feel. I don’t want it to end.

Oct 10, 2008 Black in color with a medium sized light brown head. The aroma is of oats, chocoalte and alcohol. The flavor is suprisingly sweet for a stout, with notes of coffee, oats and chocolate. The palate is creamy. Overall I’d say its a very good stout. The english sure know how to make a good beer...I’M A FAN!

Oct 9, 2008 Pours black (obviously) with a tan head that settles quickly. Aroma is of wood smoked malt, fruit, coffee, licorice, and brown sugar. Taste is of sweet chocolate malt, a little hop tang followed by a silky oatmeal finish. Wow! This is amazing. Paired with some raw oysters and clams my wife brought home - I was in heaven!

Oct 9, 2008 This was beer number 23 for me at beerfest. I tasted oatmeal. This girls at the tent were friendly. Very unique in my experience, the beer not the girls.

Oct 8, 2008 sweet and roasty oat(y) aroma - nice off-white head with great lacing. Poured a dark dark amber allowing little light thru.. just enough to see the amber tint. Very smooth and creamy palate and flavor. Nice oatmeal flavor with a dry finish - very nice thick palate. Flavor is very nice and I think better than many of the Oatmeal Stouts that I have tried. I think I like the Bells Kalamazoo better but this is very good.
Cheers.
