Bottle. This was labeled simply as Wagner Valley Oatmeal Stout. Pours black with a small tan head. Aroma of roasted malt and smoked meats. Flavor is rather sweet (almost fruity), with smoked notes in the background. The sweet and smoked tastes clash a bit too much for me. Odd fruity aftertaste too. In the end, I'm not a fan.

Enjoyed at the Alumni "Pub" at Vasser College in poughkeepsie, NY, this one poured a midnight brown color with a good sized dark tan head and great lacing. The aroma is sour cherry and lots of cider. Very unique with a touch of charcoal. The flavor is lots of mlky charcoal and apple. Sweet raspberry with mild carbonation and middle body. Plenty drinkable. Quite an enjoyable surprise.

Poured into a room temp beer mug and I let it sit for 5 minutes to warm up a little bit.
A - Very dark brown with no light coming through, creamy head.
S - Hints of coffee, cocoa, and molasses
T - It smells a lot sweeter than it actually tastes. Roasted coffee beans are prevalent in the taste. Not a lot of hop flavor, which is good for this beer.
M - Light on carbonation and has a creamy mouthfeel.
D - One maybe two would be sufficient, I wouldnt want to drink more than a couple of these.

Pitch black with a thin chocolate-milk colored head.
Mild aroma of cafe mocha.
Taste is on the plain side, although not in an especially bad way. Moderately dry, mild notes of coffee, mocha, cocoa. Low bitterness, low roastyness.
Fairly smooth, slightly more watery than I'd like. Still, not a bad stout to have a couple of with dinner.

12 oz. bottle poured into a nonic.
Pours a complete midnight black with a nice tan two finger head that quickly dies down to a thin layer. Stickenss is decent, spotty here and there. Smell is a sweet milk chocolate mixed with a nice toasted oat aroma...lots of malt in the nose. Taste is a bit weak. Not a whole lot of flavors there. Basically coffee flavors from start to finish. Not complex by any means. Mouthfeel is fairly light for the style with mild carbonation. Creamy and smooth. Pretty easy to put down but there are definitely better oatmeal stouts out there.

This offering brought back from NY pours a dark black leaving a thin splotchy head. The aroma is tart fruit, which might indicate something is wrong but letÂ’s push on. There is a bit of smoke, chocolate, tart acidic, oats, grainy bready aroma. The taste is actually smooth, has dry bitterness to this beer. Sharp grainy, oat, tartness, followed by chocolate, caramel in the finish. This is a Jekyll and Hyde beer a lot of good qualities but that tartness is not what I expect in my oatmeal stouts. Making this a "so-so" beer.
