16oz can from Lexington Co-op. Dark brown pour, ring of head. Peanut butter first in the aroma, chocolate, roasty malts. Peanut butter follows through to the taste, sweet, chocolate, dries out a bit, but super tasty

16 oz. Can. Aroma is moderately peanut butter with notes of dark chocolate. The body is nice and full with a creamy texture. I love the fact I didn’t use lactose! Yes a smooth body can be achieved without using milk sugar! Nice stuff!

Can pour shared by AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! It's an opaque black with ring of beige head, light viscosity and trace lacing. Aroma is moderately strong roasted peanuts and peanut butter. Taste is strong roasted peanut and peanut butter. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, straightforward peanut butter stout with good strength.

6th August 2019
GBBF Day 1. Cask. Almost opaque dark brown beer, small tan head. Smooth and semi dry palate, reasonable fine carbonation. Smooth dark malts, mildly tangy dark chocolate. A fair bit of nuttyness goes well with the tangy dark fruits. Flavoursome but could not drink a pint.

Cask gravity at GBBF 2019. Black beer lasting tan head. Like chocolate warm sponge cake. A little bit of peanut on the end. Love the chocolate sponge peanut cross over. Good.
