quick review: Pitch black in color and poured a creamy two finger head. Aroma was heavy on the milk chocolate and roasted malts. Flavor is similar with a pronounced roasted/coffee flavor, a touch of bitterness, and creamy chocolate finish. Mild carbonation, full bodied, creamy, smooth, and easy to drink. Overall, an excellent nitro oatmeal stout that I hope is in continual rotation.

Not sure if it's been noted anywhere else, but this is a nitro stout, so they don't sell growlers of it.
This was a dark brown beer with almost no head, as expected of a nitro stout.
Aroma was of roasted malt, burnt barley, and coffee. Quite strong, but none of the mellowness one would expect from the oatmeal. One thing I have to give them, their stouts and porters are strong enough to stand on their own.
Taste was roasted malts and coffee, but the oatmeal came through here. It was light and not overpowering.
Mouthfeel was smooth and pretty good for a nitro. Most of the time I don't like it, but it went well with the flavor.
Overall better than I thought and worth trying out.
