2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Courtesy of Coldbrewky, thank you Steve. Black with a nice, creamy head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt and some licorice/cough medicine. The flavour has a roasted bitterness and some licorice notes, but IMO it’s body is thin and lack complexity and the nice features of an oatmeal stout. 2037
3.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle from Half Time. Doesn’t have Caywood though. Just plain oatmeal. Pours black with a 2 finger darkish tan head. Chocolate aroma. Medium body with mild carbonation. Flavor is bitter chocolate. Maybe this should be a new entry? Finishes with a hint of coffee and a very dark chocolate bitterness.
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Deep opaque black with overcarnonated foamy moka head! Watch out...had the same problem with another of thier beer (brown ale). Faint dry chocolate nose. Semi sweet chocolate and berries, with some dry hops in aftertatse, very creamy but lacks in terms of consistence...ok stout.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle... Pours pitch black with a huge, frothy, well-tanned, everlasting head. Diminishes to a small, permanent, creamy layer. The aroma is all molasses, chocolate and espresso. Full-bodied and very creamy with soft carbonation. Medium-sweet with heaps of molasses and roasted nuts layered over nudges of coffee and chocolate. Deeply roasted, bittersweet finish. A big SHOUT goes out to juiceisloose for passing this surprisingly good beer on to me!

2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle. Almost black pour with an ample tan head. Aroma has some roast, molasses, and some hints of really ripe blackberries. Flavor is somewhat toasty, a bit bitter and finishes with an odd flavor. Just an ok beer.
