2015 beer advent. Peanut aroma dominates any roastiness. Medium-full bodied. The peanut butter is strong, but not too strong, all around well made beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

12fl.oz. bottle from 2015 Craft Beer Advent Calendar. (6.2% ABV) Pours an opaque, dark brown with lots of sediment and a small, short lived, tan head that leaves a ring of lacing. Sweet aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, caramel and peanuts. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, chocolate and peanut butter with a dry, bitter, espresso finish. Medium body with a smooth, creamy, oily texture and soft carbonation. A great dessert beer. Sweet but not cloying.

Bottle - Sweetish peanuts and some dark chocolate. Deep jet brown with a decent brown head. Sweet peanuts and some light roast bitterness. Decent.

12 oz. bottle, pours a deep dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of soft chocolate, some coffee, and peanut butter. Flavour is quite rich with lots of chocolate and peanut butter in lovely balance. Rich and full-bodied for a porter. Delicious.

Bottle shared by Matt W. Strong nutty toffeeish peanut butter both in aroma and flavour. Slightly thin bodied but nicely rich, also chocolatey and roasty. Very very tasty, easy drinking.

Bottle thanks to my father in law Dan: Poured a brown color with a tan head. Aroma is nice peanut butter. Taste was more of that peanut butter with strong robust malts and chocolate. This beer has that WOW factor.

12 ounce bottle into pint glass, no bottle dating. Pours fairly clear very dark brown color with a 2 finger dense khaki head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice dense soapy lacing clings on the glass. Aromas of big milk chocolate, cocoa, peanut butter, caramel, toffee, toast, brown bread, light herbal, and roast/toasted earthiness. Fantastic aromas with great complexity and balance of dark/roast/bready malt and peanut butter notes; with great strength. Taste of big milk chocolate, cocoa, peanut butter, caramel, toffee, toast, brown bread, light herbal, and roast/toasted earthiness. Light herbal/roast bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of milk chocolate, cocoa, peanut butter, caramel, toffee, toast, brown bread, and roast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Damn nice complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/roast/bready malt and peanut butter flavors; with a good roasted bitterness/sweetness balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. medium carbonation and body; with a smooth, moderately creamy/silky, and slightly chalky mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with minimal warming present after the finish. Overall this is an awesome peanut butter porter style. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/roast/bready malt and peanut butter flavors; and very smooth and easy to drink. The aromas were much stronger with peanut butter presence; the flavors were more balanced overall. A highly enjoyable offering.
