| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 27, 2009 Bottle from Chevy Chase in DC. Pours black with a tan head. Head has reddish hues to it. Aroma is like a typical well-brewed stout - roast, coffee, cocoa, and just a faint hint of oysters. Flavor is roasted malt, coffee, bitter cocoa, a little smoke, and no detectable oyster. Dry on the finish with medium body and some linering roasty bitterness. Good stuff. phillybeer28 (19), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 23, 2009 Bottle shared by robert at SL.. Pours a black color, with a thin head. Decent aroma of roasted malts and some chocolate... Taste is close to the nose, nice roasted malts and chocolate. I was expecting a nasty taste of oysters with brackish water...LOL... Overall a nice little stout that is worth trying. Dorwart (1812), Robbinsville, New Jersey, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 23, 2009 Lifeless looking pour with no head and no carbonation to speak of. Interesting smoked jerky meat aroma with some minerals, ash and sweet malts. Color is a very dark brown. Moderate flavor and palate. I realize that this is a foreign stout but it is still a bit on the watery side. Very sleek in the mouth with lots more smokey flavors, terriaki, carbon and a bit of dry dark cherry cordial that lingers for a bit. More lingering smokyess and a bit of salt. An ok brew. Glad that ther are no real oysters used in the production of his brew. That would be NASTY!!! daknole (2902), Plantation, Florida, USA

Roasty aroma with chocolate and a unique mineral note. flavor is a bit roasty and dry with some chocolate, espresso and again a mineral note. Pretty good. GuilTTy (532), Cherry Hill, New Jersey, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 22, 2009 On tap at Firewaters in the Tropicana Marketplace (Atlantic City). Rich brownish-black pour under a short but creamy medium beige head. Strong aroma of coffee and chocolate. Aromas follow through to the flavors and work very well together with additional notes of vanilla, toffee and a touch of dark fruit. Very creamy and silky texture with a long, mildly smoky finish. I’m hardly a homer and I’ve never been a huge fan of Flying Fish but this brew is extremely impressive. Rciesla (3610), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA
