Can pour from Steve. Opaque dark brown with thin head quickly fading to a ring and no lacing. Aroma is strong peanut butter, roasted malt. Taste is peanut butter but overshadowed by a tart quality. Smooth, thin texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste (unfortunately). Aroma was promising. Given other fairly high scores, this was probably improperly stored/old but not good.

16 oz can shared by tfontana. Aroma is great peanut butter mild roast, really promising. Unfortunately this is something that needs to be kept in refrigerator because the peanut turned sour. Pretty much impossible to drink.

Taster at brewery. Dark brown pour with ring of beige head. Aroma is peanut butter with roasty malts. Peanut butter follows through to the taste, roasty malts, hint of chocolate. Smooth.

On tap at the brewery. Pours black with small beige head that diminishes to nothing. The aroma is roast, cocoa, peanut butter. Medium body, rich chocolate, peanuts, light dry finish, very good.

Definitely a peanut butter vibe here. Roast and dark chocolate. Black pour with good head and lacing. Bitter nutty end. Tap at Capital Ale House.

Dark ruby, almost opaque colour, small beige head. Vanilla, waffle ice-cream aroma (I know it should be peanut butter). Light-bodied. A bit toasted, waffle-flavoured beer. Funny - the local Omnipollo. Nice.
