succumbing to a meme

It's widely known by users of the internet that bacon is the best food ever.  While we might consider that something of an exaggeration or joke, it is true that it's a good combo food - with eggs, in a BLT, etc. - so why not with a beer?  An oatmeal stout makes intellectual sense, since it's a blend of two breakfast foods, and a dark beer does have more psychological connection with meatiness.
There is a hint of bacon in the smell, much like other rauchbiers.  The taste is also along the same lines, not surprisingly.  It is smoky, slightly bitter, coffeed as well.  After some time sitting, the taste gets a little sweeter and smoother, channeling the oatmeal maybe.  Something puts me in the mood for breakfast foods while I'm drinking it; it would go well with some toast and jelly, maybe an omelet.  Even more interesting perhaps, waffles.
Most important meal, right?
