bottle - Pours black with a small, light tan head. The aroma is of dark roasted, coffee accented malt. The flavor is also roasty with coffee and chocolate notes. It’s medium bodied with a good, robust taste. Well done though I don’t notice the oysters adding anything.

Reviewed from notes.
I’ve always had this in pint glasses.
The appearance was a nice dark brown close to black color with a decent half finger white foamy head that dies at a nice pace and leaves a light lacing about it.
The smell was dry and dark and roasty. Honestly, I really didn’t get much of any \"oyster\"/brininess of any of the sorts.
The taste was mainly just dark and roasty.
On the palate, it sat at/about a light to medium in body. The carbonation was fairly good for the style and for me. It was slightly dry but not too sharp.
Overall, I say this was a decent Irish Dry Stout worthy of having again, but not much of an \"oyster stout.\"

Location: 12 oz bottle, 5/21/14
Aroma: The nose is roasted malts, coffee/chocolate, and some salt/brine
Appearance: Pours a chestnut-brown color with a light beige head and light lace
Flavor: Taste hits the same lines, with a roasted and malty flavor to go along with a little brininess
Palate: The body is lighter for the style, with a somewhat creamy and easy drinking feel
Overall Impression: This is a nice example of the style. You get some brine/saltiness from the oysters, and the overall beer is easy drinking and works nicely. What they did here makes sense to me.

Bottle @ 3 Wise Monkeys Bar(Hanuman), Todmorden. Black with a full roasted malt aroma but slightly more dour in its taste, although the roasted malts are still very apparent.

Nice well rounded oyster stout. Pours black with good head and lacing. Sharp dry roast aroma tempered by light oyster saltiness. Finishes dry and bitter. Thick consistency. Good.

Bottle. Pours black with a creamy brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has notes of sweet chocolate and roasted malt with a good amount of earthiness backing. Flavor has a distinct note of oysters with roasted malts, dark chocolate and dark grains backing.
