HOPIQ TAKE

Burning Soul Stout if you want a fuller, roastier experience, Seven Bro7hers Sling It Out Stout if you want something creamier and more sessionable. Both hit the same IBU and are oatmeal stouts, but that extra half percent ABV in Burning Soul actually matters—you can feel it in the mouthfeel and how the roasted grain sits on your palate. The Seven Bro7hers leans into the oats more aggressively, which smooths everything out. Neither is aggressive; this is about texture preference more than flavor intensity.

TASTING NOTES

Burning Soul Stout

RoastedSmoothChocolate

Burning Soul's got genuine char underneath—not burnt, but like someone knew what they were doing with the kilning. The oats are there, sure, but they're more of a supporting player to the roasted barley. You get a dryish finish that doesn't linger uncomfortably. It's the kind of stout that tastes like it has backbone without being heavy. The 5.5% creeps up on you in the best way—enough presence to feel substantial in a pint glass.

Seven Bro7hers Sling It Out Stout

RoastedSmoothChocolate

This one's velvet. Seven Bro7hers really leaned into the oatmeal aspect, and you taste it immediately—silky, almost creamy texture that sits differently than Burning Soul. The roast is softer, more chocolate than char. It drinks like a stout that was designed to be approachable, something you could genuinely have two of without feeling fatigued. The lower ABV works in its favor here, making it feel lighter without tasting thin.
