Labeled as a Nitro Oatmeal Cream Ale. Arrives a clear bright amber brown with a nice lingering bubbly white head on top. Aromas of citrus fruits and cream, almost like a fruit smoothie. Crisp grains follow with notes of roasted nuts. An interesting assembly of aromas.

First sip brings a nutty maltiness upfront with big hazelnut tones, slighty roasty. Creamy throughout with hints of light citrus fruits on the way down. Brown sugar. Overall, an unique twist on the cream ale that is very smooth and enjoyable off the nitro tap.

Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a nice creaminess that seems to just float across the palate. An easy drinking cream ale with a nice nutty flavor. Worth a shot!

Serving type: nitro-tap
