16oz glass at Beer Revolution.
This beer appears a solid black, with subtle reddish highlights, and one finger of patently creamy tan head, which leaves some chunky swaths of rain shower lace around the glass as it very slowly seeps away.
It smells of cocoa-tinged caramel malt, dry tobacco, day-old coffee, a bit of tanned leather, and faint noble hops. The taste is bready, grainy caramel malt, bittersweet chocolate, soft cafe-au-lait, a hint of licorice root, and plain earthy, leafy hops.
The carbonation is quite laid-back in its hard to detect frothiness, the body a pleasant medium weight, and rather smooth, the purported oatmeal really strutting its stuff. It finishes off-dry, but not so much, that Guinness-like character resonating way more than it should.
A tasty and inviting version of the style, produced in the same vein as the Irish greats, but somehow more flavourful all around. A coup for an aggie Alberta college, to be sure.
