Medium body, roasted malts, hints of dark chocolate and roasted hazelnut. Round, but with a bitter hoppy finish.

When we teamed up with our beer developer Rune In the early days of People Like Us, he introduced us to an Oatmeal Stout prototype he was working on. This winter it’s being brought back to life for the first time – twisted into a deeper, darker and slightly more bitter version. You know, just for the fun.

As idyllic and bright the winter might look on countryside photos, as smog-coloured and dark will you often experience the winter in the city.

But screw the advice you got when you were a kid; Black Snow IS a good thing…when served from bottles and kegs ;-)

Copenhagen 26/4 2019. 33 cl bottle from Brønshøj Vine, Frederikssundsvej, Brønshøj. Black label with golden and Black writing. Makes the Black part hard to read.

Pours opaque dark brown with small off-white head. Settles as thin rim of foam along the side of the glass. No Lacing.

Aroma is not especially intense. Sweetish and roasted. Roasted dark malts, Cocoa, caramel.

Medium strong carbonation. Thin, watery and quite lively texture.

Flavor is quite thin. Medium sweet followed by a very moderate bitterness. Aftertaste is sweetish and fairly short.

A very thin stout. Nice enough aroma but could use a healthy dose of intensity.
