Description
Launched in 2012 by by Thomas Vogel, Dave Mobley, and brewmaster Troy Smith, Belching Beaver Brewery evolved from a desire to make great beer and have a ‘Dam Good Time’ doing it. The award-winning craft beer company is focused on two things: First, have a brand that offers quality craft beer, while also being whimsical and fun to inspire good times. Each Belching Beaver beer release carries its own individual style and personality. Second, make beer for everyone and all palates. Our San Diego Brewery hosts 5 different locations serving craft beer you're going to love, of which the Oceanside Brewhouse is the production brewery.

The peanuts, chocolate and milk make for an almost-perfect aroma. It's nice and smooth on the palate, but there's a strong lemon citrus note in the mouth that detracts from the taste .

Can at home. Aroma is fudge, peanut butter, milk chocolate, vanilla, nutty, slightly roasted malt, cocoa powder. Flavour is medium sweet. Body is about medium. Tasty peanut butter vanilla fudge aroma, but I’m missing some cream and body to make this a total winner.
