Wagner's Oatmeal Stout poured a dark brown, blackish color with a mpen width, tan head.  The aroma is deep, with lots of roasted malt and lots of sweet notes.  The body is very, very smooth, with a low amount of carbonation.  The body is dominated by a maple syrup like sweetness, and a fairly low level of roasted malt holding the beer together.  There just enough faint, faint hops underneath to keep the sweetness from becoming overbearing.  It finishes with a short dryness.  Overall, this is an all around solid beer.  The middle is a little thin and while nothing jumps out as amazing, it is above average all the way through. 

The ultimate resource for beer drinkers!
