🌍 United States · Oatmeal Stout · One of 11 Oatmeal Stouts in hopIQ

An oatmeal stout that lives up to its name. Silky flaked oats give it a satin body, roasted malt lends coffee and dark cocoa, and a soft, almost-fruity finish keeps it from turning severe. The Poet is New Holland's answer to what a session-strength Michigan stout should taste like — warm, thoughtful, and worth sitting with. Not loud, just deep.
