Fresh Oysters from our friend’s Adriatic farm give a lovely, delicate mineral character and a subtle salt brine taste to beautifully complement the dark, roasty flavours of the speciality malts.

Pikzwart, geen schuim
Duidelijk oester, CO2 snel weg maakt m matig.

Can. Very dark brown color with medium light beige head. Aroma of chocolate, toasted malt, roasted malt, touch of coffee, caramel. Taste is roasted malt, caramel, dark chocolate, salty minerality probably from oysters. This is easy drinkable beer, used for drinking, not for meditation. I liked it.

Tap at the brewery, in Zagreb, Croatia. Pours black, with fine brown foam. Aroma is more chocolate than coffee, a little smoked. Body and carbonation are average. Taste is definitely roasty, but accompanied by some light sweetness. Final is on the dry side.

Can, 0.44l. Black pour, three finger creamy beige head, long lasting, sticky lacing on the glass. Nose is smoke, charcoal, roasted malt. Bready notes in the background.
Medium body, medium carbonation, lively. Smooth mouthfeel and texture, soft, chewy, somewhat lighter than expected. Goes down nicely. Balanced roasty bittersweet taste with light salty touch in the background. Aroma of roasted malt, toasted caramel, bread. Coal, ash. Dark fruits. Mild sugary sweetness, slightly sticky. Earthy notes, minerals. Medium lasting finish, dry, roasty, lingering bitterness.
Solid stout.

Canned 440ml. -from Pomalo Zagreb. Black coloured, medium sized brownish head, mild roasty nose with whiff of caramel. Light roasted malt, cocoa, caramel, mild chocolate and bit grainy without any notes of oysters. Dryish finish.

On tap at the brewery taproom. Dark brown to black. Aroma is roasty, caramely, some molasses, some licorice, and a hint of dried fruit. Smooth, light to medium body, slightly creamy, not cloying, sweetish. Aroma is toffee, roasty, caramely, a hint of mineral, minimal bitterness. Dry finish. No real oyster character, but it isn't expected to dominate, eather so a fine oyster stout in general.

Can at Goblet, shared with Veco and Čizmin I guess, and whoever else was around, hahah. Very dark brown body, blackish, off-white head. Saltier dried plum aroma, some bacon. Lean, dry taste, bit caramelly, bit salty, ending dry. Simplistic, drinkable, the shells giving a salty, minerally touch seemingly, but it's okay overall.
