Beers similar to Bad Mother Shucker

Abita Brewing Company

Oyster Stout·United States·8% ABV·One of 8 Oyster Stouts in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Bad Mother Shucker's roasted and chocolate character. Roasted malt intensity meets a subtle brininess from fresh Louisiana oysters, added during the final brewing stage. Pale, caramel, roasted and chocolate malts form the base, Willamette hops give a hoppy kick and oats a smooth, full-bodied finish. The recipe came from Baton Rouge homebrewer Kerry Dale Yoes, who won an Abita contest in 2010. It ran as a limited release in 2012 and 2013 before it was bottled and renamed in 2015.
