On tap at HopCat Livonia. Pours a deep brown with an off-white head. Peanut, roasty malt, caramel, cocoa in the aroma. Flavor has peanut, roasty malt, cocoa, caramel, with a medium-light body. This tasted pretty much as I expected from the name.

Deep dark brown coloured body with a nice, but fairly small thin, single centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of very nice peanuts, earth, grain, toasted malts, caramel and bunches of molasses notes - but the vision of literally popping open a bag of crack jack is evident here - this smells great! Light to Medium-bodied; Very nice toasted grain and pretty rich malt notes dominate here with a lot of earthiness and some rustic mushroomy qualities, but the molasses, deep caramelised sugars and especially the peanuts are very strong in the flavour that coupled pretty well with the robust malts, a lot of lactose and some cream here too - very nice in the nose and quite strong. Aftertaste is very robust, very malty but showing a lot of the peanuts and rustic notes along with the vanilla and creaminess - this is very nice, quite sweet but packed with flavours that is unmistakable in terms of peanuts and caramel. Overall, this somehow is much better than what I was expecting and the peanuts, caramelised sugars and especially the roasted/toasted malt notes work very nicely here with a great profile but even better complexity, all while being easy-drinking somehow. This one is great and highly recommended if you can find it! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Siciliano's Market in Grand Rapids, Michigan on 03-August-2021 for US$2,99 sampled at my house here in Washington on 16-January-2023.

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a relatively thick, deep brown to black with a finger of brown head that lingers. Peanut butter, molasses and treacle aromas on the nose. More of the same on the palate. Peanut butter is really well integrated. ABV hidden fairly well. Smooth and velvety texture. Peanut butter and chocolate on the finish. Very nice.

The aromas are caramel malt, slightly oxidized hops, spice, and some fruit. Flavors are like nose, Bittersweet at First becoming more bitter. Okay body and finish.
