Brass Tap National Harbor.
Lovely nitro cascade but in a sad plastic cup.
Obvious dehydrated pb dust & some lactose on the nose.
Slightly sour, milky, nesquik & weak pb, with a slight herbal bitterness.
Milky nitro, too much cream.
Bit of a mess.

12 oz can from Total Wine. Pours a pitch black color with a tiny beige head and poor retention . No lacing. Light peanut butter aroma. The flavor follows the nose. Peanut butter and porter flavors mixed together equally, with a dry, dark chocolate finish. Lightly sweet, no bitterness. Very low carbonation, almost flat. Smooth, semi-creamy mouthfeel. Not something I'd want every day, but a good take on the style.

Can from Busch's. Pours a deep brown to black with a foamy brown head. Lots of peanut flavor on the nose and dark chocolate. Same on the palate with a slight creamy texture. Some bitter roasted malt on the finish with peanut and cream flavors.

Can. Smells like peanut butter. Big & black with a nice initial creamy head. Taste is dark beer but mostly its sweeter peanut butter. Perhaps a little too sweet. Has lots of real peanut butter flavor fer sher. Yes, OK perhaps for a one timer but I'll say its just a little too much like peanut butter candy for my liking. Could not do 2 of these in a row. Has a little sizzling co2 in the background and this at least makes it interesting. Not impressed, just picked it up for a tikker.

On tap at Brown Iron House - Royal Oak, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is loaded with intense peanut butter, with a little cocoa. Flavour is on the drier side, with plenty of peanut butter, some cocoa, and a little vanilla. Not the most complex beer and a little artificial, but it's fun.

355 ml can. Murky black, foamy head. Peanut butter, hazelnut, chocolate, nougat, a bit lemon, a bit metal. Malty sweetness, dry bitterness. Medium bodied, oily texture, soft carbonated, dry malty finish. Good!

12oz can. Big peanut flavor, sweet. A pretty enjoyable beer, not too heavy or sticky. Certainly leans into the adjunct peanut flavor, but that is OK. After about half the glass it got old to me. The base Porter would probably be more enjoyable.

12 ounce can from Woodman's Appleton, 11/25/19. Black, medium foamy brown head, good retention. Aroma of nuts, chocolate, roast. Taste is chocolate, cherry, peanut butter. A bit thin. Oily. Low bitterness, some sweetness, and decent balance. Peanut butter does not come across as artificial (take notes Duclaw and Southern Tier).
