    This sounds interesting. Coming in April.

    "A hop-forward session Pale Ale brewed with oats, Oatsmobile Ale (4.3% ABV) will be available on draught and in 12 oz. bottles, packaged in six-packs across Bell’s distribution footprint.

    Oatsmobile is dry-hopped with a blend of classic and modern Pacific Northwest hops, including Mosaic, Citra and Amarillo, for a pungent blend of stone fruit and tropical aromas."

    I'll have to pick some of this up when it comes into the store.

    Seems like the kind of thing I'd want in a can. Great label though.

    Not a fan of the "Session IPA" style but I do like session-style beers and this approach seems like it will be much more to my liking. I will definitely buy some in April when it's shipped.

    I'm gonna buy me an Oatsmobile!

    Had Oat Ale at the Cafe a few times, and really liked it.

    If anyone had Boiling Pot or Oat Ale at the Cafe, it's the exact same beer. Super tasty.

    I was hoping it would be an oatmeal stout.

    So they have 3 different names for the same beer? Kinda strange

    Trademark issues would be a good guess.

    Re: multiple names--I think Founders does the same thing, probably a number of other places. Along with trademark issues it might be a way of running several test batches and receiving feedback on them while they dial it in. Regardless, hope to pick this up on a visit to Michigan as I've apparently had it before (under one of its aliases) and enjoyed it. Will Roundhouse be next?

    Love the touch of oats in a hop-forward beer. I'll be looking forward to this...

    They need to bottle Imperial Red, that stuff is better than Hopslam Ale.

    Sounds great. The hoppy beers I've had that contained oats have all been pretty tasty
