Poured opaque black with a large , creamy head. Left nice bands of lacing. Smell is slighty roasty ,milky, bit of chocolate and coffee , also some earty tones. Taste is super creamy blend of some vanilla , chocolate , dark roasty maltyness and very light bitterness. Mouthfeel is extremly smooth and silky-soft. Damn tasty! Very drinkable Oatmeal stout from Young's.

Keg. Almost black with a thick creamy head.
Robust aroma of charred toast and liquorice. Quite jarring.
Dark chocolate comes through upon tasting.
Quite thin but smooth nevertheless.
The forced dispensation does not do it any favours.

From Labirratorium. In Ikea's pint glass. Playing 12 Labors of Hercules 2. Pleasant soft coffee roastyness in both aroma and taste, with a good smooth feeling. Highly drinkable but I prefer the fuller's one.

Drier than I expected, this is definitely a dry stout all the way. I figured, why have a Guinness when there are lesser known beers to be tried? Similar in taste, but not quite as commonly available. Very big foamy head, some chocolate taste but not overpowered by it. Decent balance, though not my favorite type of stout.

On nitro in London. Creamy tan head. Lace. Color is near black.

Taste has a bitter chocolate flavor to it and has an off flavor that is slightly medicinal that I don't like.
Roasted malts. Fairly smooth and creamy.
