We rotate our Irish and Oatmeal Stouts. Both are characterized by their dark color and roasted barley/chocolate flavors. While the Irish Stout is dry and intense, the Oatmeal Stout is softened with the addition of oatmeal and more risidual sugar.

[1] Review by beerguy101 from Newark, CA, USA who has tried this beer once. (5/4/2008 8:15:46 PM)
"Tasted at the 5th Annual (2008) Triple Rock Firkin Fest. This dry stout pours a medium black color from the firkin. Small sized white foamy head. The aroma is chocolate and coffee, with a touch of burnt malt. A light to medium bodied stout. The malts are cocoa, toffee and coffee. The hops are earthy. Nice balance. Dry and crisp with a nice malt backbone. The soft carbonation and the firkin style really works well for this beer. Very tasty. It was my favorite of the day. Mouthfeel was a touch thin. Finish was dry and crisp. Aftertaste is slightly bitter."
