Midtown tasting. Pours lightly orange, cloudy and some white bubbles on the top. Nose is interesting, a bit harsh grainy feel there, fruity tropics in the background. Fresh green grass. Taste is a bit rough too, strong barley and quite harsh bitterness. Dry herbal finish. Super bitter, highly dry. Different. Can't feel any peanuts.

Draft, at Noon Whistle tap room. The draft pour is a little bit cloudy and orange-ish. The head is a bit bubbly, a nice surprise considering that I'd think peanut oil might hurt head retention. The smell has a basic hoppy APA note to it. I admit that I was prepared not get a useful nose tonight, since I’m fighting a cold. Do I taste “peanut”? Well, I figure that would be kind of neutral in a hoppy beer. I start to catch a little bit of peanut powder in the background, but the main impression is of a nice hoppy IPA, with western Citra and Wakatu hops. I started to pick up just a side note of peanut, enough to trigger a slight reaction at the back of my tongue. I may or may not have a very VERY slight reaction to peanuts, but it’s never stopped me before (BUT I do NOT suggest anyone with a real peanut allergy could try this).
