This one pours a fairly dark black color, with a small head, and a little bit of lacing.
This smells like earthy chocolate, roasted malt, a touch of seaweed like brininess, and a bit of dark fruit.
This isn’t overtly seafood-like, there’s just a nice earthy brininess that melds well with the dark fruit, roasted malt, and milk chocolate here. It’s earthy and lightly sweet, and pretty well balanced all together.
This is creamy, lighter bodied but very drinkable.
I wish I saw this style more often – I don’t really like eating oysters, but I like the interesting dimensions they can add to beers.

Extremely dark espresso brown pour: appearing muddy but quite clear with cherry highlights. Thick and cakey dark khaki head.
Robust, chocolatey Devil's Food Cake; the strong roast highlights a mild fruitiness consisting of Concord grape syrup and smattering of strawberry frosting.
Hazelnut cream; very smooth, delicate and rich feel with lighter body. Good summer stout for sure that won't weigh you down.
It could be the novelty of an oyster stout (the only two I remember drinking were phenomenal), so there's that association. And it could be WK just makes very drinkable stouts without sacrificing any flavor.
