It may sound odd to have oatmeal in your beer. Sure, oats are grain, they can be fermented, but oatmeal beer? Yes! Oatmeal stout, to be precise. An English brew, naturally.

Being a stout, it's a nice dark color. The beer comes out with a lot of lightish brown foam, making it look like you have something more like a chocolate shake at first. Most of the head disappears after a bit and you have a glass of rich, dark brown beer. It has a grainy smell and the full bitter taste you would expect from a stout, with just a little salty taste to it as well. Serving suggestions include Italian food and lobster, although I don't know if I would care to have anything very heavy with it. It might go well with some soft pretzels, and Boetje's mustard. I have the feeling "The Celebrated Oatmeal Stout" could calm horseradish agitated tongues with ease.
