TASTING NOTES

Burning Soul Stout

RoastedSmoothChocolate

Burning Soul hits you with a thicker mouthfeel right away—the oats create this creamy, almost velvety texture that lingers. There's cocoa and a hint of char without being aggressive, and because of the 5.5% ABV, you get a slight warming sensation on the finish that feels intentional, not accidental. It's the kind of stout that rewards sipping slowly rather than knocking back.

Seven Bro7hers Sling It Out Stout

RoastedSmoothChocolate

Seven Bro7hers' version drinks lighter despite being an oatmeal stout, which honestly surprised me at first. The oats come through softer, more like a gentle sweetness than a textural thing, and at 5% it feels more approachable—less commitment per sip. The finish is cleaner, less sticky, which makes it the kind of beer you could grab a second of without that full-stout fatigue.
