Reviewed from notes.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: black in color with a two finger eggshell white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: peanut buttery powdery sweetness, dark chocolate & milk chocolate, coffee roast and black coffee
Flavor: melds the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to roasty peanut buttery quality; finishes peanut buttery and chocolatey with some coffee
Texture: medium bodied, slightly sessionable; good smoothness but with a touch of roast slowing down the smoothness
Overall: what a nice peanut butter stout that so many brewers should be modeling their peanut butter stouts after.

Very nice peanut butter beer. It's medium strong, but meshes well with the full body of the stout. Very good. Oaktoberfest

Tap at Cap Hop. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Aroma is pretty darn peanut butter. Med + body. Flavor is peanut butter quickly followed by some chocolate which morphs into dark malt. I guess it is smooth. But I’m thinking this is all about peanut butter.

Mini growler from Altamont. It pours dark brown with a thin tan head. The aroma is strong with peanuts and chocolate. Not too sweet smelling with hints of roasted malt. The flavor is again, very nutty with some cola notes on the palate and minor notes of chocolate and roasted malt. Very soda-like on the palate actually with more roast and peanuts in the finish. Body is a bit lacking. Not bad, but it could have been better.
