Can pours clear pale yellah. Big fancy aroma of real peanuts, no lie. First big swig is all peanuts too. Was expecting a cloying bomb but the peanuts in this really come across like the real thing. In the middle, I do start to pick out the cream ale, just barely cause the the peanuts are so overwhelming. Could not drink many of these but for a single tick I'm finding it quite interesting. Not as good as Hershey, Penn, Left Hand or R Bar peanut butter brews but its ok by me. Just don't make me drink more that a couple. In the end, it certainly stands up to its name, except I'm not sure where the crunch comes in.
