Poured on-tap at the Cocoa Beach Brewery, the beer was served up in a pint glass. Pours a nice jet black with a thick ring of chocolate colored head. The beer has a thick, viscous appearance to it. Once it hits your mouth, you can't help but notice how surprisingly ligh and crisp it actually is, with a great smoothness to it. The brew also leaves a great lacing along the glass while you imbibe. The nose is heavy in coffee aromas, with a strong dose of smoke. Very inticing. The flavors are a very balanced blend of rich malt, dark chocolate, and coffee. The sweetness and bitterness play very well with each other. There is a hoppy and coffee bitter aftertaste, with a smooth, yet somehow dry, finish. Great beer!

Nice coffe roast smell with a little chocolate. Smooth beer, except for a slightly bitter finish.

22oz bomber poured into red solo cups as the good times rolled at the pavilion. Black body with a half-finger of tan head. Not much lacing, but hey, it’s a solo cup. Aroma is roasted malt, cocoa powder, and a touch of coffee - on the simple side. Flavors are similar, roasty malt sweetness leads through some cocoa and coffee bitterness. Medium body, thin texture, especially for an oatmeal stout, medium carbonation, a touch high for the style, dry finish.

Poured from a bomber to a nonic glass
L: Black with light brown head. Was VERY fizzy for me; it took a while to pour as the giant head kept sticking around. Eventually settled into a nice foam.
S: Lots of coffee and chocolate with earthy fruit notes at the end from the hops. No oatmeal smell.
T: this tasted a little thin, but nice. Coffee with some earthy hops at the end with a bit of toffee, but otherwise. Not especially sweet, as I'd expect from this style. It felt more like an Irish Stout. Decided burnt taste at the end. No oatmeal flavour.
M: Sparkly, but thin. It was clean-feeling, but it lacked that smoothness you'd normally get from an Oatmeal Stout. I'd prefer a less-carbonated version.
O: Not bad, but nothing to write home about. I'd love to try it on tap, though; I think some of the things that are missing would come out more from a drought pour. But I won't seek out another bottle.

The Lost Spring Break 2012 Beer Reviews, Chapter 5
Black body, with small dark tan head. Small head may be the result of hotel glassware.
Big nose of deep roast coffee, undercurrent of chocolate, and a layer of oatmeal.
Taste reverses impact. Coffee is there, but chocolate is stronger. Good taste of oats along the way.
Smooth, rich, but not slick mouthfeel.
Overall, it lived up to its name.
