Tasting Notes
Fall has arrived with authority in the Northwest. Dead leaves litter the wet streets. Days get shorter and shorter. The skies remain a constant shade of grey, and the crisp, cold air hangs thick and damp. Hello rain, let's get drunk. OakShire Overcast pours a deep, dark black with a tan cap of frothy head. Aroma is a good mix of coffee and chocolate, as expected. The taste follows along with the aroma -- coffee, chocolate, and a subtly smoked malt backbone. Medium mouthfeel. Dry finish. Very smooth and rich, well-balanced, and delicious. Bravo!
