Back Road Stout

Back Road Stout used to be just a winter seasonal brew when it first was introduced back in 1996. But since then popular demand has made it into an all year affair.

The 'oatmeal' in the name is due the 5% oatmeal in the the grist of this brew. Oats give beer a real thick mouthfeel, something definitely desirable in a stout! Black malt and roasted barley give the beer its color, and coffee-like flavors.

If you like thick full-bodied & smooth stout, this beer is for you!  This is our first high gravity beer put into production since the law change in March 2010.  Sip responsibly!
