This special ale is as black as the Alaskan winter nights. With a nod to the past, we brew John Henry Oatmeal Stout as an American take on an Irish Classic. Fuller in flavor and with a silky mouth-feel from the oats, we add an American twist by adding a small portion of rye which lends a spicy note. Conditioned with Nitrogen our Stout pours with a frothy head and smooth feel.

Recipe reformulated in 2007 by their new head brewer.

Aged on bourbon-barrel oak chips! My server pulled it and presented it promtply but the deep-tan head was already falling away to wisps. Nose had a mild bourbon smell. Color was a deep, dark cola-brown with no light penetration. Mouthfeel was silky with a mild bourbon taste on the tongue. Finish was more chocolate than bourbon. Not a bad way to start.
