Bottle: Black with a small tan head. Roasty, chocolate-covered peanut aroma. Taste is a little boozy, dark chocolate malt, peanut. Very rich and full....and the alcohol doesn’t present itself harshly....just lends a little menthol-like cooling to it. Mellow, chewy.....good stuff.....Thanks Shrubber!!!

Bottle (from a trade - it was so long ago I can’t remember who. And I promised to share it with a bunch of people, but the tasting group fell apart right after the trade so I’ve had it in my fridge waiting for another chance but finally got tired of waiting - at least I’ll share it with Patrickctenchi). Peanut butter, chocolate malt, and herbal hay aroma. Black with moderate tan head. Moderately sweet peanut butter, chocolate malt, and moderately bitter herbal hay/gentian root flavor. Nice body. Very good.

Bottle thanks to Todd. Pours a pitch black color with a medium brown head. A big sweet peanut butter nose. The flavor is big chocolate, peanuts, creamy. Quite good.

22oz bottle pours a murky, deep black with a ring of creamy, tan head. Nose has plenty of nuts and chocolate, like smelling a liquid Snickers, a little rootbeer. Flavor is even better and that probably sounds crazy, big malt, chocolate, nuts, molasses, nougat, caramel, coffee... everything. Full bodied but also dry. Really solid.
