32oz growler from Beer'd. Pours a dark, dark brown color with a half inch of head. Lots of lacing. The aroma is roasted malts, charcoal, chocolate, earth and a hint of the saltiness. Almost like dark chocolate with sea salt. The taste is the roasted malts and chocolate at first followed by the oysters. Slightly salty with a bit of an ocean funk to it, but in a good way. Earthy with a fair amount of roasted malts and smoke towards the end. Finishes with more of that salty/sea flavor and some coffee. Light body. The oysters, roasty and chocolate flavors all balance out well. Overall, a drinkable, well balanced stout that will be a good choice for the warmer months. Well done.

Poured from a 32oz growler that was filled at the brewery on 3/14/15 and consumed on 3/17/15, into a mug glass.
A: The beer is a deep dark brown color, with a thin off-white head that fades slowly and leaves a thin lace on the glass.
S: The aroma contains coffee, roasted malts, chocolate, faint hops and the usual mild zing that oysters somehow add.
T: The taste starts out very smoky up front followed by a hearty roasted malt character. Then some mildly sweet flavors of black coffee and milk chocolate come in. There are some background flavors of oysters and dark fruit. The hops presence is mild but complementary and brings a good balance. The after-taste is bready and slightly sweet.
M: Crisp and smooth, medium body, medium carbonation, finish is dry and slightly sticky.
O: Tasty, goes down very easily, not too filling, decent kick, very good representation of style, this is a very good stout to drink for a long time.

Lovely dark black brew, nearly clear around the edges with reddish-brown highlights.
Tons of roasted barley on the nose and the palate, translating as coffee and bitter chocolate. There's a touch of briny saltiness on the palate as well, far from overbearing, and just enough to make itself known.
Slightly thin for my preference, but at 6.5%, this is not designed to be a big stout.
