Two Rabbits Salty Caramel Oatmeal Stout Aroma and Taste
Two Rabbits Salty Caramel Oatmeal Stout poured out a pitch black colour with a tiny amount of slightly off-white bubbles that faded fast to leave a slightly oily slick on top of the beer. Unsurprisingly, Two Rabbits Salty Caramel Oatmeal Stout had an initial aroma of chocolate and coffee, before segueing into a toffee / caramel aroma. Fairly straightforward, but it does exactly what it says on the tin. I didn’t really notice any saltiness to the aroma, either in terms of mineral nose or actual salt aroma, if salt actually has an aroma?
The body felt thin when Two Rabbits Salty Caramel Oatmeal Stout was chilled, so after letting it warm up for a bit, I wasn’t surprised to notice that the body also became thicker and bolder. The three main flavours were the same as in the nose: chocolate, coffee, and caramel, though this time around, there was a slight minerally component to the body, with the saltiness coming through some more. The oats brought a silky smoothness to the body, which made it easy drinking compared to other stouts, with their robustness making them more sipping beers. The lingering flavours had a subtle ashiness to it; nothing off-putting but it was noticeable.
Two Rabbits Salty Caramel Oatmeal Stout The Bottom Line
Two Rabbits Salty Caramel Oatmeal Stout is a solid beer that does what it says it does.
