Day 5
The bottle encourages you to "pour with purpose. For the best experience turn upside down and pour quickly. " Doing that you get a pretty lively white nitro head over a bright red beer. Moderately clear with suspended particles and fast bubbles.
The nose leads with a sharp red wine vinegar acidity followed by floral sweetness
The flavours are smooth and mellow as is the mouthfeel. The nitrogen and oatmeal make for a silky beer on the tongue. There is a mild fruity sweetness and a vanilla note.
Commercial Description:
This stout takes the cake.
Our Red Velvet oatmeal stout is a mind-bending beer. Like the cake that inspired it, the deep red color comes from beets, which add a rich, earthy character that complements the chocolate flavor and aroma. The foamy head of the nitro pour is our "icing", adding a creamy smoothness to the mouthfeel. But this liquid dessert still finishes like a beer - not sweet, but just as satisfying.
