12oz single, possibly left over from the CEO/Old Farts BIF – if so, thanks Vancer.
Black pour into the sampler glass with some orange/red highlights in the bottom of the glass. Head and (sparce) lace are bone white.
Thin body and non-descript nose.
VERY light on taste. Lacks bitterness, smoke, caramel or significant malt/chocolate notes, this is a pretty average example of the style by any stretch of the imagination. Especially lacking considering this is an “oatmeal” version rather than a dry stout. Some significant acidity in the finish and also seems over-carbonated.
Poor beer IMO.
