Our Tastes-- BlackStone Oatmeal Stout
Pouring a flattening slightly creamy head, BlackStone's Oatmeal Stout, has the color of unrefined coal!! The nose is a well balanced toffee, coffee, possibly blackstrap molasses? Balanced oh so well with oats this smooth velvety stout will wake the stout monster in anyone. Upon swirl the sweet light brown head returns like the phoenix. I forgot to ask Red (denoted here in pink) what the abv is on this one, but then again I was enthralled by the tour. Definitely a keeper with OG 1.064, IBUs 27.
