Tasting Notes
Pouring deep dark brown, with rich aromas of dark chocolate, licorice, and coffee flavours that follow into a palate that’s full bodied with bold flavours, and a moderately dry finish. This stout will convert even the most fearful of dark beer drinkers, and would be most happy being sipped by a campfire or along side a beef stew!
Method
Oatmeal Stouts are an old English style of stout brewed with the addition of flaked oats in the grain bill. Oats contribute a very creamy and smooth texture to the finished beer, as well as aid in head retention. A style made by a select few brewers in the U.K. only to find acclaim by modern craft brewers. Because of this style, craft brewers have taken to adding oats in all manners of styles, including IPA’s.
