12 oz. can from a four pack purchased at Merrimac Liquors. Aroma displays the peanut butter more so then the flavor. Notes of coffee grinds and roasted malts.

The texture is dry and roasty with the same notes of coffee and the most subtle hints of peanut butter. Honesty even when warm the only reason I could pickup the peanut butter is because I knew it was here and it was noticeable in the aroma. The base Porter is pretty good and I always enjoy it when I sample it.

Can from America on Tap Deep golden color with a frothy white head. Rich bready pilsner maltiness with just a hint too much spicy earthy hop to counter. I enjoyed this but its a bit too hoppy for style.

Tap at Rogue Roost, Providence. It pours clear deep amber with a decent white head. The nose is brown bread, light caramel, earth, bran and wood. The taste is bitter, earthy, brown bread, cereal, toasty, mild spice, bran and slightly burnt notes with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Pretty basic stuff.

This was poured into a snifter.
The appearance was a semi-hazy bronzed orange color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within less than a minute. Lacing speckles the sides nicely.
The smell starts off with a sly citrus pulp and rind and slides into a subtle nice malt.
The taste was moderately bitter with an ample sweetness of the citrus combining nicely in a sticky fashion. Subtle tobacco rides into the aftertaste and grabs the citrus to slide into the finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation seems good for the style and for me.
Overall, for a DIPA, its a good one, there’ s nothing wrong with it, I could see myself having this again.

Can. A yellow beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of straw and malt as well as light notes of fruits. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and straw as well as a bit of fruits, leading to a bitter finish. Boring.
