16 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 11/15/2019. Pours opaque dark brown/black color with a 1 finger dense and rocky tan head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a small cap that lasts. Nice dense soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big milk/dark chocolate, cocoa, dark roasted coffee, cinnamon, caramel, brown sugar, roasted nuts, toasted biscuit, and dark/brown bread/crust; with lighter notes of dark fruit, smoke, char, herbal, wood, grass, pepper, and yeast/roast/toasted earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of dark/roast/bready malts, coffee, cinnamon, and light earthy hop/fruity yeast notes; with big strength. Taste of big milk/dark chocolate, cocoa, dark roasted coffee, cinnamon, caramel, brown sugar, roasted nuts, toasted biscuit, and dark/brown bread/crust; with lighter notes of dark fruit, smoke, char, herbal, wood, grass, pepper, and yeast/roast/toasted earthiness. Light herbal, woody, grassy, peppery, roast, char bitterness; and cinnamon spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of milk/dark chocolate, cocoa, dark roasted coffee, cinnamon, caramel, brown sugar, roasted nuts, toasted biscuit, dark/brown bread/crust, dark fruit, smoke, char, herbal, wood, grass, pepper, and yeast/roast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a while. Awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/roast/bready malts, coffee, cinnamon, and light earthy hop/fruity yeast flavors; with an awesome roast/hop bitter/sweet and spiciness balance; with no cloying, acrid, astringent flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering bitter/spiciness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/silky/bready, and fairly sticky/chalky mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol for 6%. Overall this is an awesome spiced coffee oatmeal stout. All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/roast/bready malts, coffee, cinnamon, and light earthy hop/fruity yeast flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with the mellowly bitter/charred/spicy/drying finish. Great soft/silky feel for the ABV. Awesome balance of nicely rich malts, fruity/nutty coffee, and cinnamon spice complexity; with light earthy hops and fruity yeast. Light residual sweetness with lingering dryness. A really enjoyable offering, and impressive style example. Not overwhelming on any aspect.
