Early Riser Breakfast Stout

Tried the Breakfast Stout from Northern Brewer today while brewing the Sunshine Up Your Kilt Scottish 60-.  

It is very creamy, no doubt from the oat adjunct and the excellent liquid yeast.  Could use a bit more bitterness, but is eminently drinkable.  I think age will definitely make this better.  Nice silky head texture and slight carbonation, like a great stout should be. 

Brewed Jan 3, bottled Jan 10, it has some aging left.  I would rate this one highly on my list of best 'everyday' beers.
