Introduction

Once in a Lifetime is a stout built around texture and balance. Oats bring a smooth, rounded body while carefully chosen dark malts add depth without sharpness. Rich and satisfying, but never heavy, this is a stout designed to be enjoyed easily and often.

Flavour Profile

Expect soft roasted notes with hints of dark chocolate, coffee and toasted grain. The oatmeal adds a creamy mouthfeel that smooths the roast character, while subtle sweetness keeps everything in balance. The finish is gently dry and clean.

How It Was Made

This stout was brewed with an oat-forward grain bill to build body and texture, supported by darker malts for depth and roast character. Fermentation was kept clean and controlled to allow the malt profile to shine without distraction.

Process highlights

• Oat-rich grain bill for smoothness and mouthfeel
• Carefully selected dark malts for balanced roast character
• Clean fermentation to keep flavours rounded and accessible
• Conditioned for smoothness and cohesion

Why it matters: Oats soften the roasted elements and add body, creating a stout that feels rich and full while staying highly drinkable at 5.0%.
