Notes:

This got a poor score in PBC Stout bout 2019, 29. Main complaint was sweetness and light body, which is a somewhat fair assessment, but not quite as flawed as they suggest, I think. I'd rate it more like a 36 or so. One judge complained about banana esters, the other didn't find the oatmeal mouthfeel. Next time I brew it, I need to make sure it attenuates more and maybe adjust the grain bill. Maybe less oats and more chocolate.
