A- About a 1-2" tan head on a dark brown/black body.
S- Roasted barley, oatmeal, grass hops, toast, and a dry chocolate.
T- Follows the aroma. Leaves a dry burnt and roasted flavor with some grass hop bitterness. Light mocha taste while a coco comes in to fill it out.
M-Medium to full body with low to medium carbonation.
D- It's a good Oatmeal Stout. I would gladly try it again just wouldn't go out of my way to try it.

Black to deep, deep ruby, this is very pretty with a thin bubbly head that dissipated quickly and laced well.

Nice charred aromas of coffee and chalky chocolate. Touches of Graham Cracker and a little charred oat malt, balance out a nice scent.

Lots of coffee char and some dry chocolate there's slight burnt oat taste but not enough variance to achieve high scores. Very good but slightly weak this is a nice starter stout for those wanting to delve into the genre.

3.81/5  rDev -2.8%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.75

Appearance- pours with a slightly pebbled tan head of a half finger, deep black, dark red-brown when held to the light

Smell- great chocolate hints with toasted edge on the end, sweet toffee character

Taste- sweet caramel and toffee, a little toasted bitterness on the finish, not too much on the balance

Mouthfeel- full bodied, creamy smooth, fast fade

Overall- A well done oatmeal stout, the sweetness was left to go a little wild without the hop character to tone it down
