Southern Tier Oat

Pours jet black with a nice off white head. Aroma is roasted malt, oats, coffee, chocolate. Flavor is roasted malt, oatmeal, coffee, hints of chocolate some bitter coffee in the finish. Very enjoyable for one glass but gets to be a bit much doing a bomber by yourself.

Bottle from Lone Hill, aged a year. The only beer I’ve had of theirs which I don’t actively dislike. Nice reddish tinge to the body, aroma of hot dark chocolate, only light coffee, berry. Flavors of the same with a very brief roasted oat sensation right before the finish. Reminded me of Dark Lord, actually, but without the texture.

Bottle from West Lakeview Liquor, Chicago. this is a delicious stout. coffee, chocolate. almost no hops. The alcohol flavor is present.

Bottle. Medium high creamy and long lastng light brown head leaving nice curtains. Very dark brown, almost black body. Roasted barley malt aroma with coffee and choccolate but no sign of the expected hops. Smooth, pleasant ladylike creamy coffee choccolate with a good deal of bitterness in the flavor. The high alcohold percentage is not tastable. Liquorice adds up although not very dominant. Low carbonated and a long and bitter coffer aftertaste. Man what more do you want. CSA (my Danish hero brewer) thiis one is one that I am sure you would have loved to have brewed.

Bottle. Opaque body, very thin ring of bubbles. Nose-oaty, dark liquid malt extract, boozy. Taste-lots of dark fruits, fig raisins, sherry, sweet bitter on the backend, a little acrid coffee, cherry, bittersweet chocolate, pecan shells, sticky, overall too sweet.

0.65 l bottle at Pikkulintu, Helsinki. Black color with small head. Vinous aroma with soft roasty malts, dark fruits, licorice, plum and perhaps oak also. Thick sweet flavor with dark fruits, grassy oats, obvious but not strong roastedness, smoke, plum, chocolate and licorice. Bitter chocolate in the finish. Very good, so far my favourite from this brewery.

22oz bottle courtesy of vwcraig. Bottle says this was brewed in fall of 2007. It smells like it has held up well, sweet stout notes and a little alcohol. The flavor is some chocolate, more stout, no roast or oat but a good beer nonetheless. The only thing I don;t care for is the high ABV, I prefer beers to be under 10% Serving type: bottle Reviewed on: 12-17-2008 03:25:41

Poured from a 22oz bottle. Dark, dark brown with a tan head. Smells very nice, some roast and chocolate scents. Very smooth and a nice balance for bitterness and sweet. I can’t wait till this beer joins the other Southern Tier brews already available here. Nice beer. Worth seeking out .
