Two of my favorite beers, SS oatmeal stout and brown ale have pronounced diacetyl taste. According to Palmer in How to Brew, SS has long been known for this flavor characteristic. Has anyone figured out how to duplicate this taste in a controlled manner?
 
Diacetyl in Sam Smith's? Skunking maybe (the brand is notorious for not being fresh by the time it gets here), but I've never heard diacetyl and "SS" mentioned together.
