Real Ale Brewer's Cut Oyster Stout

Apparently it's weird and wonderful stout month for me, with the latest being the latest release from Real Ale's Brewer's Cut series, the eye-catching Oyster Stout.  And it's good.  I'll admit, i was expecting there to be a bigger oyster kick in the flavor, but this dark brew feels more like a traditional stout than anything else.  The roasted malts are evident in the aroma and the taste with a slight briny note on the back end.  Hints of coffee can be found throughout as well, sometimes giving the beer a porter-like taste.  All in all, an interesting beer from a great brewery.
