Default Samuel Smith's Oatmeal Stout

Finally tried this and what a great beer. If any of you haven't tried this yet, you probably won't be disappointed.

Have you tried Young's Oatmeal Stout? Both of these are my absolute favorites (excepting my own of course). They also make a Double Chocolate Stout that is superb (Youngs). Give that a try!

Just drank the SS Oatmeal Stout tonight. It definately had a nice, silky smooth mouth feel. Mine had a metallic taste, however. Maybe something to do with the time it took to get out here to Washington state.

I actually thought the actual bottle was dark brown. I was shocked when I started pouring and it was actually a clear bottle...that's a dark beer!

Yeaup. Tasty stuff. I am a huge fan of Oatmeal Stout. In fact that was my first AG. Troegs also makes a pretty decent one. Not at all the same, fairly hoppy, but a good brew imo.

Just popped a bottle myself after hearing all the hoopla, and the 90 score on beeradvocate. Taste is very chocolately. The texture is really amazing to me if you keep it on your tongue for a few seconds.

I am surprised though as there seems to be a bit of a "bite" on the tongue in the aftertaste. Is this a normal character of this beer, or is it maybe not so fresh?

If you can part with half a bottle, marinate a filet in SSOS with some spices (I like garlic, pepper and dill) for several hours in the fridge. Grill that puppy mid-rare and pour up a tall one of the same beer. The roasted notes come out in the steak and then when the steak is gone, you still have the beer to remind you of the steak.
Now THAT's Classical Conditioning at it's finest I assure it.
