We went down to the pub on Thursday for this one. Waiting for months for it to come on. We waited and waited.Someone forgot to tell ben "Oatmeal stout has more body than standard stout, and is smoother, slightly sweeter, and typically higher in alcohol", sweet stout not being his thing.
Brewed by Wentworth brewery in Rotherham.
Commercial notes "Dark, smooth, deeply delicious and definitely moreish. This outstanding oatmeal stout has to be tasted to be fully understood. A medal winner at Oakwood in 2000, it achieves its satisfyingly malty flavour in part due to the roasted barley and Golding hops.
Ingredients: Maris Otter pale malt, black malt, wheat malt, roasted barley, oatmel malt. Goldings hops.".
It is more sweeter than say Guinness or pitch black stout but just as thick as Guinness draught, nice roasted malt taste. It is 4.8%.
Rating: Good example of oatmeal stouts
As you can see am a professional at rating beer
Overall: good but not as good as pitch black stout
its shite.well disappointed

ReplyDeleteI don't know what Ben was drinking, perhaps he got confused with Guiness....
