Our Oatmeal Stout is...well...black! It's chock full of six different imported English malts and 10% flaked oats that give it a thick, rich mouth feel. The Chinook and Northern Brewer hops definitely take second seat to the roasted and toasty malt profile. This is a stout lovers stout for stout lovers to love...PEACE!

a black pour with a ton of bubbly/foamy tan head (seems over carbonated... the foam kept rising from the bottle). smells of tobacco, chocolate, toasted grains, burnt toffee.

the flavors are very subtle and the texture is very silky - making this a GREAT stout. tastes of burnt coffee grains, dark chocolate, roasted nuts, burnt caramel. overall a bitter-like flavor, yet very subtle and light on the taste buds.

medium body with a silky creamy texture, constant fizzing carbonation.

this is a great stout and i'm shocked it only has 3 reviews. thankful for r/beertrade having a local BOTM group trade.. got a nice package from montana, including this bad boy!

On tap at Rising Sun Pizza Co. in St. Mary. Went surprisingly well with pizza. Not a ton of head, but drinkable.

Pint enjoyed on tap at Grand Union Hotel in Fort Benton, MT. Upon ordering the server remarked "Oh, you'll enjoy that one". Indeed I did. A pitch black brew, almost no colored halo to speak of, with a frothy, fluffy head that almost approaches the color of chocolate milk. Chocolate milk on the nose as well, along with dark roast coffee, earthy, spicy hops (there's Chinook in here!), and faint ashtray. Nothing fruity or nutty that I can discern. Body thinner than expected but the creamy smoothness one should get from this style is there in spades. The carbonation seems higher than expected although this does not detract from the mouthfeel. As the nose would suggest, the hops are assertive and cut the sweetness enough that some black malt character shines through. Lovely granola and chocolate notes and an earthy, spicy, vaguely sour finish. Could be my favorite of the four local brews sampled this weekend ... A skillfully hopped oatmeal stout makes for something different, with sweet and roasted elements in harmony.

Large tanish-coco colored head, slight brown hue to the black body. Charred malt with hefty chocolate notes in the aroma, along with a detectable level of slightly bisciuty pale base malt. Some creaminess comes through from the oatmeal as well. Large head settled to a half centimeter cap.

Up front the flavor is a bit drier than I expected, possibly more from the dark malts than the attenuation. Hop bitterness is present and balancing but not much for hop flavor which is fine for the style, when it does show up it is just a touch floral. Dark malts dominate the palate, leaning toward heavy roast but blended with chocolaty notes. Oats give it a some what oily texture with a bit of a grainy bran hint in the after taste.

Overall a pretty good oatmeal stout. Defintely leans toward the roatsty end of the spectrum. The finish is like I just ate a 'peace' of dark chocolate (sory for the pun, damn hippys).
