From the Great White North comes this sturdy black-hued brown-headed toasted- hopped stout. Sweet mocha barleymalt richness and honeyed oat essence enliven silken ash tongue. Not nearly as heavy as mahogany appearance indicates, yet second only to heralded Samuel Smith’s Oatmeal Stout.

Ashy up-front mocha-maple sweetness and terrific flaked oatmeal finish bookend smoky dark brown treasure. Subtle dry malts and bitter hops amplify seeping piney essence, softening raspy chocolate sweetness to dry coffee finish. Neither as potent as Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout nor as chewy as Ipswich Oatmeal Stout, yet an undeniable big time contender.

Jet black oatmeal stout lacks creamy black chocolate density of richer rivals, yet woodsy hickory-oak insistence, smoked meat graze, black cherry tang, and anise amble confirm scintillating dry port appeal. By firm finish, mellow butterscotch awakens flaked oats toasting.

Parched mocha whiff sets up delightful black chocolate setting, burnt coffee bittering, and maple sap deluge of mahogany medium body. Dry oat richness drives nutty rudder where secondary charcoal-tar coarseness and tart fig recession cluster. Crisp mineral water current provides clean bed.

Dry roasted coffee creaminess, dark chocolate sourness, deep grain bitterness and dirty vegetal earthiness complement enveloping oatmeal toasting. Sweet mocha-cocoa undercurrent delicately relinquished by deep espresso counter, but heavy carbonation precludes initial smoked nuance and finish needs thicker burnt coffee froth.

Red tinted, black-bodied, tan-laced dry stout supports smoked hickory theme with roasted mocha malts, bitter black coffee moderation, and deep-grained efficiency. Chalky chocolate, burnt cherry, and dehydrated raisin coat mild oatmeal finish for lighter appeal.

Eccentrically compelling black-bodied tan-headed fruited stout holds up well as ripe blueberry sweetness contrasts charred hop roast and strong black coffee finish. Blueberry muffin, pie, and jam illusions sometimes play second fiddle to blackened tar, nicotine, and cinder bittering that gums up expansive black chocolate-y coffee thickness, but rich dessert beer should be tried by all hearty beer lovers.

Rich oatmeal presence, malt-infused berry aroma, and bitter grain linger provide strong up-front resonation. Mocha-coffee notes fill out blackened hop backdrop nicely.

Strong oatmeal scent enhances coffee-stained chocolate-coated stout. Punctual malt deepness and cherry wood illusion settle at backdrop, adding strength to lingering barley-oat finish. It’s got some kick, too!

Despite expectant dark-toned gruffness, light-bodied stout stays easygoing, finishing a bit thin. Buttery popcorn initiation quickly wiped away by black coffee serenity and burnt hickory ravine, turning drier as sour grape esters and tart cherry aridity rip through roasted hop setting where maple-walnut-cocoa illusions find solace.

Creamy ruby-velvet stout exerts burnt coffee bitterness over roasted mocha-nut dryness and resinous black chocolate ascension. Piney Cascade hops graze dried fruit hesitance, acrid vegetative saunter, and increasing charcoal-tar harshness to espresso-cappuccino midst, clearing the way for lactic milk chocolate-y eruption.

Nowhere near as thick as ‘crude’ moniker suggests while inconsistent tan bubbles above mahogany body seem shabbily arranged. But obliging roasted coffee theme registers above sturdy milk chocolate-y lactose and mocha-molasses maltose. Bittersweet hazelnut-butternut-Brazil nut vim, smoked meat whim, and burnt wood stint drape toasted oats bottom.
