This sessionable Oatmeal Stout presents an inviting profile of milk chocolate and mild roasted coffee, reflecting its Stout à l'avoine heritage. The addition of oats creates a characteristic silkiness that rounds out the dark malt flavors, providing a velvety texture despite the lower ABV. On the nose, expectations of coffee-and-cream are met with a light nutty graininess and subtle dark fruit esters. The palate is balanced, offering a gentle toasted breadiness and a smooth cocoa finish that avoids harsh astringency. It concludes with a clean, medium-dry aftertaste of roasted grain and a touch of earthy hops.

Appearance. Deep brown to opaque black. Thick, creamy, persistent tan head with excellent lacing.

Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring roasted coffee and milk chocolate, suggesting a coffee-and-cream character. A light grainy-nutty oatmeal aroma is present, accompanied by low earthy hop notes and subtle dark fruit esters.

Taste. Initial impression of mild roasted coffee and milk chocolate. Oats provide a toasty-nutty and grainy flavor that enhances the mid-palate richness. Medium bitterness provides balance against the malt sweetness. Finish is medium-dry with a lingering nutty and roasty aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a characteristic smooth, silky, and velvety texture derived from the oatmeal. Moderate carbonation and low alcohol warmth. Smooth, creamy mouth-coating quality with no astringency.
