Commercial Description:
For its third stop on our multi-year trip to explore the state of New Jersey through its beer and culture, Flying Fish journeys to Exit 1 for Bayshore Oyster Stout. Oysters have had a long association with stout in the United Kingdom. This tradition was gradually lost to the rise of pale ales and overharvesting of the oysters. Exit 1 celebrates this tasty combination and New Jersey’s history as one-time oyster supplier to the nation. Our version is an "export style" stout brewed with oysters. The creamy chocolate flavor harmonizes with the minerals from the oyster shells (there’s no actual "oyster" taste). An Irish ale yeast contributes a bit of fruitiness and a dry crispness. This richer, fuller stout is perfect for cold weather and to share with friends over great food. Not to mention with a few oysters on the half shell.

Bottle. 25.4oz. Split this beauty with James, Andrew, Ryan, and Belushi. Pours thick, deep brown, almost black, with a medium amber head. Robust, complex body with an outrageously creamy mouthfeel. Tart, tangy, spicy, yet clean finish. Excellent stout from Flyin Fish. Highly recommended.

Bottle courtesy of patfannon. Nose is cocoa, roasted malt... Strong and inviting. Pour is black with off white thin head. Taste is slightly swartzy with a bitter bite toward the end. Dry and burnt taste, carries a tang. Very good, and glad to see this brewery doing more experimental stuff

Opaque black color with a medium sized, tan head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of roasted malts, smoke, chocolate, and sea salt. Taste of roast, dark chocolate, smoked malts, some caramel, nuts, and oysters in the finish.

Tap at CAH. Pours a deep black with a medium bubbly deep tan head that left some lacing. Aroma of rich roasted malt, chocolate, nuts, caramel and light coffee notes. Flavor is also very roasty with caramel, nuts, very smooth and robust chocloate and coffee notes.

Bottle from Chevy Chase in DC. Pours black with a tan head. Head has reddish hues to it. Aroma is like a typical well-brewed stout - roast, coffee, cocoa, and just a faint hint of oysters. Flavor is roasted malt, coffee, bitter cocoa, a little smoke, and no detectable oyster. Dry on the finish with medium body and some linering roasty bitterness. Good stuff.

Bottle shared by robert at SL.. Pours a black color, with a thin head. Decent aroma of roasted malts and some chocolate... Taste is close to the nose, nice roasted malts and chocolate. I was expecting a nasty taste of oysters with brackish water...LOL... Overall a nice little stout that is worth trying.
