Formally named Viva La Beaver, and prior, Living La Beaver Loca (Tom was voted down on that one), we changed the name to highlight the key flavors of this award-winning beer. With notes of creamy peanut butter, cinnamon and coffee, this decadent milk stout is the perfect dessert beer to finish off your meal.

--Canned, thanks Bearbeer! -- Dark brown, rich head. Reeks of boiled milk and peanut butter. Very sweet with medium to full body and sticky mouthfeel. Sticky caramel, cinnamon and boiled milk, lots of peanut butter. Revolting and cloying. Totally undrinkable.

From Beer Drop. Canned December 16th 2021.
Pours a pitch black with a large head of tan foam.
Smells of peanuts, chocolate and some roasted malt. Nice.
The taste is lovely flavours of peanuts and delicious chocolate. Some roasted malt adds to the enjoyment of this excellent brew.
Creamy smooth mouthfeel. BB does it again.

1 pint can. Pours a very dark brown with full foamy tan head. Aromas of peanut butter and slick roasted malts. Flavors of peanuts with milk chocolate and oily roasted malts. Not getting much spice and peanut butter is on overload. Nice enough though especially if you love peanuts

US pint, on-tap in Heroes & Legends, a sports bar in Lake Forest, California; 27th December 2021. The beer menu called it Viva La Beaver Mexican Chocolate Milk Stout (7.5%), should be the same beer. It came black with a wispy tanned head. Chocolate aroma and taste, couldn't detect any Peanut Butter, but it was viscous and pretty sweet from start to finish, 16oz's was more than enough (they don't do flights or halves in Heroes & Legends, but you can have 34oz pours if you want!).

Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 30/10/21. Back with a good sized tan head that dissipates over time. Nose is peanut butter, chocolate fudge sundae, dark malts, light roast. Taste comprises chocolate cake, peanut butter cups, toffee, brown sugar melt. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light drying close. Solid PNB stout ... good balance, get the peanut butter over, doesn't run too sweet.
