Clear but very dark body, like dark chocolate, with some ruby showing with a strong enough light behind it. Light tan rich and creamy head that fades to a thin ring and leaves no lace. First on the nose is chocolate, rich warm semisweet chocolate and/or chocolate syrup, followed by a bite of coffee and mellowed by oats. Coffee hits first on the palate, the flavor and the acidity, followed by a plethora of oat, chocolate, sugary crystal malt, and roast- just roast. Not picking up any vanilla, maybe it's hidden behind the oat. Maybe my palate sucks. The feel is really light for a dark beer, highly quaffable. Not a bad thing, but I could use more body with this flavor profile.
Coming back from a hiatus of beersploration, this is a wild drink. How did I come to like beer so much? That's nothing against this one, quite the opposite, Made me reappreciate the flavor combos that somehow work for me and countless others. To balance so many additives, albeit simpatico ones, to the well-constructed base of typical ingredients is impressive. I like humans and beers and especially humans who make good beers.
