Year of New Beer: Ohio City Oatmeal Stout, Great Lakes Brewing (Cleveland)

Cocoa powder, coffee, earthy hops, and a bit of smoke/ash on the nose. On the tongue, the chocolate becomes sweeter and creamier, aided by the oatmeal presence. Traces of bread crust join the coffee bean bitterness. The ash note is drying and a little too overbearing for me. Good, not great.
