Millstream Back Road Stout
I've encountered a couple of pretty good beers from Millstream this past year, starting with Great Pumpkin Imperial Pumpkin Stout that I tried at Jake's last October, and the Schokolade Bock which I discovered around Thanksgiving. I'll throw my hat in the ring for Back Road Stout as well. Dark brown-black with a thick beige head, there was a fairly thick mouthfeel, as one would expect from an oatmeal stout. There was an immediate bite from the hops, balanced by the sweet maltiness. Lots of chocolate and coffee at the top, with some surprising black cherry and brown sugar as it warmed up. Great example of an oatmeal stout.
