A beer to celebrate Craft Beer Garden Festival 2025!

In collaboration with Magnify Brewing. Yeast sponsored by AEB Brewing.

With our Jerseyan pals we long boiled 12 hours for a dessert-like pour that hits with chocolate fudge and nutty sweetness. Created with heaps of roasted malts and layered with a decadent dose of creamy peanut butter. Pleasure made for sweet teeth in the garden of indulgence.

Opaque colour and tiny beige head. Aroma is odd mix of coffee and peanut butter. Full-bodied. Sweet. Toasted, chocolaty, coffeish with peanut butter. Some bitterness. Sweetness without enough depth.

Panda at home, thanks to Mark the Bearded Avenger, 21/12/2025.
Black topped with a khaki cap that thins to a swirl.
Nose is chocolate shavings, mellow roast, spice, toasted brown sugar, molasses.
Taste comprises dark malts, nutty, caramel, molasses, mellow roast.
Full bodied, fine carbonation, drying close with a balanced rising boost.
Tidy enough impy stout if a touch 1D in its outlook.

Can from Left Field Beer. Aroma has bitter cacao and chewy peanuts. A tangy edge and peripheral sweetness. Dark and glossy. Foamy tan head. Flavourwise the decadent desert then appears- thick chocolate and salty fudge. Peanut butter. A sweet streak. Thick. Oily. Soft carbonation. Long astringent finish. Nice. Could be but not too sweet.

Просто хороший стаут, сладкий в меру, но горький и тяжелый слишком. Новая пивоварня для меня.

Sweetish, roasty and slightly nutty with some syrup, toffee and earthiness. A bit heavy and sweet.
