Boulevard Tasting Room Series: Oatmeal Stout

Contestant #2 from the Tasting Room, Oatmeal Stout poured a thick tar-like black, with a towering four-finger head that slowly receded to a lacy tan topping. Fairly hoppy at 35 IBUs, about what you might expect from a pale ale, but with the heavy consistancy that any oatmeal stout should have. Coffee and chocolate notes, but not overwhelmingly so. A little bit of a whiff of what you might expect from a whiskey-barrel-aged brew.
