Notes:
Oatmeal Stout
12oz Bottle
5.4% ABV
Appearance:
Pours the darkest brown possible…awesome, thick khaki colored head…very
inviting! (3.75/5)
Smell: Rich
oatmeal and chocolate aromas right off the bat…roasted malts, cream, toffee,
caramel, dark fruits, subtle coffee and sweet malts…(3.5/5)
Taste:
Fantastic oatmeal and chocolate flavor up front…somewhat watery, the
roasted malt delivers a solid flavor that is balanced out by earthy, grassy
hops…creamy, milky, mildly smoky, mildly woody, a bit of brown sugar…tons of
flavor going on here…it’s a bit watery which does wash the taste away rather
quickly leaving a light, chocolate/oatmeal bitter after taste…(2.5/5)
Mouthfeel:
Light to medium body…smooth…there is light carbonation that does fluff
up, but because it’s a bit watery, it washes away quickly…there isn’t much to
this…mildly dry finish…(2/5)
Overall: It’s
good, not great…the smell is nice, but the flavor is washed out by it’s watery consistency…I
have to say I was a bit let down by that…if there was more flavor and
thickness, this brew would be a lot better…as it is, it’s an average oatmeal
stout that I would probably never venture towards again…(2/5)
Score:
(2.75/5)
