Oyster Stout
A stout at 5 percent brewed with whole oysters, following a British tradition in which both shell and flesh go into the boil. The shells add minerals and calcium, the flesh a faint salinity — neither reads as seafood in the glass. The brewery lists dark espresso, chocolate and cocoa. It has since dropped off the menu.
