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.
