A full-bodied oatmeal stout that is surprisingly sessionable. brewed with a variety of American and German malts, this beer is deep and complex with notes of espresso, chocolate, and toffee. RIP Juice.

Drinking out of a small tumbler at the brewery. Not a glass to accentuate taste, but there isn’t much.
Pours an almost black with a thin tan head.
Little smell. Slight hints of dark Balt.
Thin mouth feel.
Almost no taste.
One of the worst craft stouts I’ve had.

This one pours a fairly dark black color, with a small head, and lots of lacing.

This smells super roasty and nutty, with some dark chocolate and light herbal hop character.

This has a pretty full flavor the lower ABV on it, with lots of chocolate, and a nice toasty and nutty vibe. There’s coffee and some light sweet creamy vanilla tones.

This is medium bodied, creamy, and pretty rich for the lower ABV.

You don’t see just a regular medium strength stout anymore, so I was happy to try this.

Dark brown appearance with a loose tan head that recedes quickly to a collar, decent lacing. Roasted coffee been, chocolate, malt. Moderate to thick body, creamy carbonation.
