8oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square. Not sure if I have ever had a beer flavoured with this particular confection before.

This beer appears a slightly hazy, dark orange-brick tinted brown colour, with a thin cap of wispy and bubbly off-white head, which leaves a low berm of lace around the glass as things slowly sink away.

It smells of bready and doughy caramel malt, vanilla cookies, almond paste, bittersweet cocoa powder, some mild free-range ashiness, and very tame earthy, musty, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy cereal malt, vanilla extract, some bland earthy nuttiness, ethereal medium chocolate, a hint of estery yeast, and more understated leafy, herbal, and dead floral hoppiness.

The carbonation is fairly benign in its bored-seeming frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and mostly smooth, with just a touch of damp smokiness perhaps making a minor dent in the surface sheen here. It finishes off-dry, the malt and muddled Italian sweets presiding.

Overall - this offering promises more than it delivers upon, as if they didn't name it as such, I wouldn't have really noticed the purported dessert association. Other than that little quibble, we have a nicely rendered oatmeal stout on our hands, FWIW.
