Neat. Sample. First time trying anything from Still Austin.
Nose is very toffee and nougat forward. Also getting a lot of cinnamon raisin oatmeal cookie. Powdered sugar. Little musty funk. Decent nose but no stand out characteristic. No crafty bubble gum so that is a win in my book.
Mouthfeel is syrupy with a bit of grit to it. Starts out decently bright and sweet up front. Vanilla Royal frosting. Darkens you mid palate and blows into that raisin cinnamon oatmeal cookie. It has a layer of frosting over the top too. Those notes carry through to the finish where it picks up a hint of chocolate.
I don’t get oatmeal cookie much personally. I’ve heard others get that note on other pours but I think this is the first pour to really blast it. The taste is much better than the nose let on. I don’t have a desire to but my own bottle based on this sample but I will happily try Still Austin again down the road to see if they can build on this positive impression.
