On tap at the brewery. Dark, almost black, with no real head but a few bubbles. Roasted malt and chocolate smell. Medium and slightly creamy feel. Taste has some malty sweetness with chocolate notes. Pretty good!

Not much head, even when not served on nitro, thin carbonation is reminiscent of a nitro-poured beer. The flavor is more akin to a milk stout, in my opinion. All-in-all, my favorite beer that I've had from LaBrewCo.

Notrous version of BAOS, which added a creamy texture to an already very good stout. Served in a Nonic glass w/1 finger of head which lasted until the end. Roasty, smoky and dark chocolate smell and flavor. Very nice creamy mouth feel accentuated by the nitrous. I've had the regular BAOS before and the nitrous adds another dimension to this beer.

This beer is a sentimental favorite for me. Like most of the brews at LBC, this beer is typically served at the perfect temperature and should be enjoyed right away.
This is the Oatmeal Stout that I compare against all others. In my judgement, it has the perfect blend of Oat, chocolate, and malt flavors. The beer is a wonderful deep brown color, almost black, and the stillness of the brew certainly sets it apart from the typical over-carbonated tap beer. The only criticism I have is that the beer can have a salty aftertaste.
I have been to this brewpub over 100 times, and I never come without drinking this beer. If I am ever even close to Lafayette, I pack a growler. I have made special occasional pilgrimages to LBC with the goal of having a Stout. Occasionally, it will be available cask conditioned, a rare treat worthy of keeping them in your contact list.

A: The beer is very dark amber in color. It poured with a finger high dark beige head that died down and consistently left a thin layer of bubbles covering the surface.
S: Hints of dark malts and chocolate are present in the nose.
T: The taste has light flavors of semisweet chocolate and hints of cocoa nibs.
M: It feels medium-bodied and very smooth with hints of creaminess on the palate. There is a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is very easy to drink and has a pleasant smoothness.
