Oatmeal Stout 1Gal Test

Testing what it is about stouts I do and don't like. In this recipe I went for roasted, but avoided astrigency (i.e. no burnt husks).
I prefer stouts with a substancial mouth feel (I think), so used oatmeal as well.

  1. Had one the other day, seems to be missing something. It's black, but it's not roasty enough, needs more something.
