Oatmeal Stout

PictureEver wonder why the English are always talking about God saving the Queen? Well, little known fact is that it's because the queen fancies a pint of beer every now and then. This is actual painting evidence found in an English pub. -Jake Hafner, Captain of the Barley Ship
Don't be afraid of the dark. Our Oatmeal Stout is a little shy but friendly, just like you. You two are gonna hit it off right away. Most beer is brewed entirely with barley but this one includes some oats, a closely-related cereal grain which adds a silky mouthfeel with creamy, long-lasting foam and lace. No harsh burnt notes here, we prefer bready, toasty and rich chocolate notes with a nice soft earthy note from fuggle hops. Full-bodied, warming, and smoooooooth.  Employees at the Civil Life have a long running joke with their doctors that tell them to eat oatmeal and they say, "What? Drink my oatmeal?"  Then they immediately end the appointment and return to "work".
