Can pour (3/25/24) pour from Manchester Wine & Liquors. Opaque black with ring of head and no lacing. Aroma is strong peanut butter, milder vanilla/milk chocolate. Taste is strong roasted malt, peanuts, vanilla, perhaps mild chocolate; mild alcohol presence. Smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Peanuts dominate, as they should, but barely get chocolate. Alcohol almost fully hidden.

16 oz can shared by tfontana. Thank you Tom! Aroma has a bolder vanilla. Yet, peanuts are hidden underneath. Flavor is again vanilla, soft chocolate, and some roasted peanuts in the finish. Good body and texture. Nice!

Can, 24011 date, drunk mid-February 2024. Clear, dark, cola-tinged mahogany. Small, beige head, moderate retention. Chocolate, light coffee, fruitiness and lightly crisp lager yeast on the finish. Not too heavy on the dark malt, seemingly ample base malt and clean. Clean, malty and snappy with crisp yeast, low but ample bittering hop and interesting fruit, chocolate, caramel and brown sugar.

Can brewed at 12 Percent Beer Project from Livonia Liquor. Pours a pitch black with a finger of brown head that dissipates. Dark chocolate on the nose but as it warms nutmeg and coffee notes open up. Don't get a lot of coconut but maybe it's there. Nutmeg, dark chocolate and coffee on the finish.
