Draft at Ascension. Pours a clear, straw gold color with a finger of white foam that lingers. Lemon and citrus on the nose. Crisp and clean. Super crushable. Drinks more like a hoppy pale but delicious. --- Beer merged from original tick of (collab with) Monkey Head The Todd on 27 Dec 2019 at 04:22 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5.

Draft at Ascension. Pours a clear honey gold with a finger of white foam that lingers. Light breaded malt aromas with honey and mild grain notes. A touch sweet on the palate and missing that classic Czech bite on the backend, but still a nice lager.

Can from the brewery shared at Prodigal Son share. Pours a pitch black with a half finger of brown head that dissipates. Big peanut butter focused nose with cacao nib, chocolate, vanilla and booze. Full bodied and rich stout with the abv there, but hidden really well for 17%. Lots of peanut butter powder and kinako with some vanilla on the finish. Warming with cacao nib and light roasted coffee flavors that linger.

Can. The ABV was 17.1%. Perhaps this differs a bit. Pours a pitch black hue with a small beige head. A big roast and peanut butter nose. Rich, vanilla, sweet cocoa, huge peanut butter. Smooth, no huge ABV shown. Very nice. Decadent.

Thanks Will for sharing! Taster showing dark brown and no head. The nose shows intense notes of peanuts. The palate is full bodied and lightly carbonated. Strong peanuts throughout with a strong coffee bitterness on the finish.
