Dry Stout. Creamy, rich, and roasty. Flaked oats from Maine. Great for a summer day!

Pours a dark brown-to-almost black. Aroma is chocolate and the flavor follows. There's a hint of coffee and vanilla in the flavor as well and some dark roasted malt. Feel is smooth, likely from the oats. Overall, nice dry oatmeal stout and one of my local go-to stouts.

From a 32oz growler less than a week old.
Pours a dark dark brown color, good sized head that fades at a decent rate although there isn't much lacing on the glass.
Smell has a huge sweet aroma, strong notes of vanilla coupled with chocolate.
Taste is much more subdued compared to the aroma but the sweetness is still quite high for this stout, bitter roasted aspects help to calm it down somewhat but the vanilla and chocolate are still quite present, sharp carbonation, creamy body though no doubt from the oats.
