Three Floyds Backmasking Oatmeal Stout

 Three Floyds Backmasking Oatmeal Stout.

8% ABV, 35 IBU, Three Floyds Brewing, Munster, Indiana. 

I’ve never owned any heavy metal albums. But I can tell you this much: there is backmasking on Tommy James and the Shondells “Crimson and Clover” record. Turned me Satanist for a while there.

Full ebony hue, rich, creamy head, nearly opaque. 

In the nose: malty, slightly sweet, oaty. 

In the mouth: smooth, calm and comforting. Excellent balance, all parts in order, creating harmony and deliciousness. Earthy, gritty, chocolatey. Exceptionally rich, full and defiantly drinkable.

Wanted: more oatmeal stouts like this! (Found in the latest variety pack.)
