Time to draw a line in the sand. We need to put this out there and we hope this doesn’t mean we can’t be friends anymore, but it needs to be known. We only like creamy peanut butter. We think the only peanut butter on the planet should be creamy and that crunchy peanut butter is an abomination before the gods that should be stricken from the earth. There, we said it. We feel better, how about you?⠀

So to declare this love for the creamy overlord of peanuts in butter form we’re dropping a brand new Peanut Butter Milk Stout called Smooth Or Die. It’s packed with chocolatey, peanut buttery flavor and aroma and it’s rich and unapologetically smooth, so smooth, like the Gods intended.

Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown colored body with a semi-bubbly to mild foamy one and a half fingers of tan head which slid off quicker than I would have thought (odd); barely any lace
Aroma: peanuts and peanut butter, some saltiness, sturdy roastiness, some milk chocolate tones
Flavor: mildly sweet, roasty and some salted peanuts; super subtle aftertaste of peanuts, roastiness and milk chocolate
Texture: between light and medium bodied, between sessionable and being a sipper; borderline watery, finishes peanutty, salty and chocolatey
Overall: though I haven't had much from Drekker, I do not believe this is one of their finer beers. That head seemed disappointing and for this kind of stout, I would have thought there would have been a heftier body.

Aromas are peanuts, dark malt, roast, cocoa. Flavors are similar to nose, lightly sweet and soft mouth. Good but not great.

Panda at home, thanks to the Wingmane, 28/03/23. Pitch black with a khaki cap that dissipates edgewards. Nose is chocolate, hazelnut, light charr, Nutella, pinch of spice, dark malts. Taste comprises roasted bite, touch of peanut butter but more a hazelnut praline/Nutella vibe, toffee fudge. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light drying close. Decent pastry affair.
