Can from trade with CLW--thanks, Chris! Opaque dark brown, light sparkle, decent head with poor retention, trace lacing. Aroma is strong roasted peanut butter. Taste is strong peanut butter, lactose. Smooth, thick texture, full bodied, soft carbonation, finish as taste with mild late bitterness. Don't get much stout but get a lot of the non-rancid peanut butter. Good strength for ABV.

16 oz. can from The City, Sanford, ME. Aroma is a delightful amount of peanut butter and roasted malt. The flavor, so strong, peanut butter, roasted mall, and maybe even a hint of vanilla. Nice mouth feel in good strength for the gravity. This was a very nice surprise for me.

Can, undated, as pictured, drunk 11/10/25.
Fairly rich peanut butter with good acidity, no roast and some light sweetness. Clean and aromatic. Well-presented.
Similar in flavor. Nice and easygoing but with a reasonably malty, dry texture that has enough comforting malt. Good acidity and nothing weird going on whatsoever. Just a solid peanut butter beer with good balance.

Cask at GBBF 25. Opaque brown. Foamy off-white head sticks to the rim. Malty with some damp smoke. Smoked veg. Light-medium bodied. Soft carbonation. Long slightly astringent finish. Rubbish.

16 oz can. Aroma is sweet grain and caramel. The base of this beer has entirely to much Caramel & Crystal Malts. The hops are drowned out in the sweetness. I really love New Zealand hops. Too bad I can’t find any here. For the love of god, no.
