Brewer's notes

The oysters themselves however, are far too bitter to eat. We try it every batch anyways.

Honey Malt
Black Barley
Roasted Barley
Summit Hops
2 Bushels of Willapa Bay Oysters

Astoria slow sand filtered water.

No filters, finings or clarifiers.

7.5% ABV

 

Right before we transferred this mild stout into the fermenter, and we ran the wort through two bushels of Willapa Bay Oysters. We let the oysters sit in the wort until they started to pop open infusing the beer with the briny oyster juice.  Although you cannot taste an immense amount of oyster in this stout, you can taste a hint of salty goodness that lingers on your palate. Drinking this beer is truly like kissing the ocean.
