440ml can [9.7% abv]. Hazy, orange, golden colour with slightly late awakening, thick, creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Slightly condensed, minimally perfumed, tropical fruity and citrusy, hoppy aroma with grassy and slightly piney impurities, notes of lemon peel, grapefruit, mango, passion fruit. Taste is bitter and juicy, tropical fruity and citrusy, hoppy, slightly alcoholic, sweet-ish, minimally sugary, oaty and crystal malty, rather homogeneous fruitiness without explicit single fruit notes, light alcoholic bitterness besides the hop bitterness as well. Creamy-oily texture, smooth and soft, simultaneously minimally pungent palate, very fine, soft, mildly prickly carbonation. Condensed and homogeneous, not really boozy but quite punchy - pretty decent.

Can pour. It’s an opaque black with light viscosity, thin cap of light brown head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong peanut butter over lighter chocolate and vanilla. Taste is peanut butter with hints of coffee, cola, chocolate and vanilla in the finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with thick texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, peanut butter aroma is fantastic but lighter in the taste. Other aspects are pretty muted so not great balance. OK but a bit disappointing for the category.
