A homage to the sleepy, quaint fishing village of Apalachicola, Fla., this velvety, roasted and robust oyster stout is complex yet drinkable. The use of poblano and chipotle pepper, as well as fresh Florida lemon peel, interplay with a delicate French Strisselspalt hop aroma to create a sweet, sessionable stout.

Taster at the Brewpub. Pours black, with a small, bubbly, tan head. Big roast, cloves, chicory, and some rubber. Sweet and malty, with a mild bitterness. Medium body, with a chalky, grainy palate This is a solid and simple stout.

Bit of a drag, since the idea of a chili pepper oyster stout sounds pretty awesome. Pour is mediocre, hitting a nice, thick brown-black yet lacking much head or lace. Nose is bland as well, notes of chocolate and a tiny whiff of brine. Tastes sweet, mostly a chocolate front with a mild cherry-lemon tang. Stays semisweet, and the saltiness of the oyster remains restrained. Tiniest bit of pepper spice on the fade, but feels like everything about this beer should be turned up a couple notches. Thin, chalky texture.
