Stone Bitter Chocolate Oatmeal Stout

Author: Escape To Beer | Filed under: Beer Reviews

Name: Bitter Chocolate Oatmeal Stout

Brewery: Stone Brew

Overall Rating: A

Style: Stout

Serving Style: 22 oz Bomber Bottle

ABV: 9.2 %

Price: $ 5.99

Aroma: Dark chocolate and malt are the first thing that hit me.  In the background a hint of fruits.

Appearance: Like chocolate in a glass.  Dark and rich, just good stuff.  So dark that you can’t see anything on the other side when you try to look through the glass.

Flavor: Really does live up to its name, bitter chocolate for sure.  Roasted malts are the second strongest presence.  One of the best things of the stouts that I like.  The last thing I taste is some dark fruits.

Mouth feel: Very good.  Definitely not a wimpy brew.  A good thick feel for a brew.  A good combination

Enjoyability: A good choice to enjoy when you just get home from work or when you are out on the town.  This is almost like a coffee at the same time.  At 9.2 % abv just be careful.

Another take: Beer Rate Stone Brew

    Nice work. Do you recall what “fruits”? Fruit is a pretty broad term. Does it taste like coffee or is it just like coffee you have after work. I’m confused but mildly entertained. Cheers!!
