Dependable roasted coffee bean theme of taut ebony-hued oatmeal stout remains lighter than most in its robust class. Sticky-tongued cocoa-dried oats-toasted molasses malts reach dry-hopped vanilla-beaned espresso finish. Slight citric zing found at nutty earthen distance. Full-throttled richness counters its smooth nature, giving lighter palates a soothing crossover.
