On Tap at the Vancouver brewery/taproom Black pour. WHat littel head or lacing there was, quickly dissipated. Plenty of the advertised PB in the aroma. Along with some gentle dark roastiness. Similar flavors, nice balance between the Peanut and the roast. Some notes of chocolate in there help with the medley. A little late bitterness. Pretty good example of the PB Stout. The big ABV I think helps it in this.

16 oz. can. Aroma is light chocolate and soft peanut butter. Flavor does show mild cacao and peanut butter. Unfortunately it also has an increased amount of sugar in the finish. Entirely too sugary to drink more than 6 ounces of. Can breweries stop making these pastry stouts that are diabetes in a glass?
