This is a classic oatmeal stout that has been brewed here for many years. A winter time favorite, it has a huge local following. Dr Fogg’s is made using a good percentage of Roasted Malt, a black specialty malt that has been kilned for a long time to create a dark, bitter flavor. It is basically the definitive malted barley for creating a stout. We have added oatmeal, in order to create a fuller body and smooth mouthfeel. The oatmeal also imparts a unique flavor to the beer, giving the overall perception more depth. This beer does not have a strong hop character or hop bitterness, but rather accentuates the roasted malt character from the grain.

Had this brew yesterday while visiting the brewpub after a day of snowshoeing, believe that they had it listed as an Oat stout but could be wrong? Wanted to celebrate a successful climb of TableTop which gets me to 24 peaks completed and only 22 to go to reach my ADK 46, anyway I digress. This brew came in a standard pink glass, nice black color with a good solid medium colored tan head that had very good retention and left some nice lacing at the top of the glass. The aroma is real inviting as it highlights a real nice roasted smell which seems to also mix in with flavors of oatmeal, chocolate and a slight burnt malt. The taste is very good, extremely smooth with what I classify as a nice velvet feel. The flavors seem to center around a nice solid malt flavor of the roasted malt with a slight burn astringency that where highlighted in the aroma. Also posses what I would consider a nice oat flavor, this is another reason why I am pretty sure that this was an oatmeal stout. The body seems very adequate for this type of brew, possible be a little more robust. Overall this is a fantastic offering from the Lake Placid Brewery, one to get if you are in the area. Very easy drinking!

The beer pours a deep dark black color with a thick frothy tan head that slowly fades to lacing. The aroma is good. It has a rich and dry black malt scent that boasts of patent and roasted malts along with an earthy oatmeal quality. The taste is great. It has an extremely smooth and rich, black malt flavor that goes down easy and finishes dry and earthy. The mouthfeel is decent. It is a medium/full bodied beer with adequate carbonation. This is a good oatmeal stout. It has great flavor and aroma. I just wish it had more body; a good drinker.
