You know when Lockdown is getting to you when you choose a beer that reminds you of the SEA!
The sea?? Yes indeed, the sea. I have a beer quite literally made from salty sea creatures!
That's right Sister-Brother-Men! Salty sea OYSTER beer.
So here we are again. It's Saturday and that means me slopping beautiful nonsense into my mouth which is the exact opposite from the norm where beautiful nonsense quite literally slops out of my mouth!
Somebody touch my downstairs lamp.
There be changes afoot you might have noticed. There is only one beer to review?!
What?!? What what?!?!
I know. I can't get to the beer shop, supermarkets have shit beer (mostly) and the second beer that I had planned to review this week didn't arrive in my amazing beer box.
Out of stock they claimed. Have you ever heard of something so inhumane?
I will tell the Judge that they led me on good and proper and that is why I had to DESTROY THEM.
Maybe.
So what is this beer really all about? Let us get stuck in and sea.
Boom boom!!
They claim that 'Oyster Chew is a slightly more saline and less sweet version of our beloved stout, using hundreds of oysters in making the beer.'
That's nice. I don't mind a salty himjimminy. Hopefully not too salty. I don't want it to taste like the inside of a Mexican farmers hat.
It's a dank black with the smallest hint of brown. Like the grease a black-hearted pirate might use on his pole when giving the cabin boy what for.
Interesting indeed. Let's go!
Oofty boofty, I don't know about Oysters but hell, this tastes like seaweed sprayed in squid ink with a subtle hint of beer!
The brackish salt of the Kraken was almost overwhelming at times but for a man of my caliber it was easily bested. A good beer but not amazing. A fair 7.5/10 booms.
Right, I am on to the pales!
Let's light a candle for the end of this darned lockdown so that my beer Saturday's can get back to normal!
Cheers, have a good weekend everyone!
