COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brewed with fresh oyster. A smooth drinking aromatic stout with a discernible but unidentifiable aromatic aspect. Not suitable for vegetarians. This gently flavored stout has a roast malt character, full body and an aromatic character from the Goldings hops. Fresh oysters added during the brewing process, lend a discernible yet unidentifiable note.

Apariencia: Marrón muy oscuro; casi negro y espuma que se ve reducida a una fina capa rápidamente. Aroma: Ligero y agradable. Sabor: A malta tostada con ese toque seco y ese algo diferente que imagino le aportan las ostras.

BierFiend (79) - Theisberstegen, GERMANY - MAY 25, 2013
Pours dark brown with a tan head. Smells of roasted malts and a hint of the ocean. Taste of coffee, cocoa, roasted malts, and on the back end there is the flavor of oysters/ocean. Best oyster stout out there.

Mortlach (723) - Rome, ITALY - MAY 24, 2013
24/05/2013 Birrifugio Trastevere (tap). Nera, impenetrabile, bellissima schiuma bianco-beige, finissima e molto persistente. Al naso sentori di malti tostati, con note di cenere, una punta di salmastro, grande equilibrio ed eleganza. in bocca č delicata, una carezza, armoniosa in perfetto stile anglosassone, forse un po’ corta. Corpo medio-leggero, carbonazione soft. Una ottima interpretazione del genere.

kerenmk (1214) - Tel Aviv, ISRAEL - MAY 21, 2013
Bottle sample at a tasting at Dancing Camel. Thanks zvikar. Clear coke brown with beige head. Some ink, seaweed, iodine and some saltiness aroma. Tastes bitter and a little salty. There’s more evidence of roasted stuff in the mouth. Medium body, delicate fizz, salty finish, Very tasty but not aggressive enough.

Smells chocolaty with a hint of the ocean. Pours deep brown with red tints and thin almost nonexistent head. Tastes slightly sweet with a hint of fishiness, not overpowering. Goes down smooth and creamy, but leaves a fishy aftertaste.
