Very Stouty - nice mouthfeel

I used Nottingham yeast and it fermented out very nicely. This comes out very dark, more of a stout than what I am used to for an Oktoberfest. It's been in the keg now for about 4 weeks and is getting better each week. My friends love it. This one is a keeper - I will brew it again.
