Can (032PNB21H--Feb 1, 2021?) pour from trade with AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! It's an opaque black with 2-finger width light brown head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong peanut butter, chocolate and coffee. Taste is strong peanut, coffee, light caramel. Mouthfeel is light side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth, thin texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, better peanut butter flavor than most PB stouts. Nice that there's other aroma and flavor as well. A little thin.

16oz can pours out hazy golden topped with a white head. Nose is citrus hops some floral notes and a sweet malt. Taste is more of the citrus forward hops and that floral note.

16oz can from Tavour. Black, still pour. Prominent peanut butter aroma. Taste adds some chocolate to the peanut butter, but the peanut butter stays dominant. Falls a bit flat at the finish.

Can (030JBH21H--30th day of the year, 2021?) pour from trade with AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! It's an opaque, dark yellow with trace sparkle, 2-finger width off-white foamy head with decent retention and fair lacing. Aroma is strong tropical fruit, overripe pineapple and tangerine. Taste is tropical fruit and notable grain bill offset. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with fluffy texture, soft carbonation, smallest of alcohol warmth and crisp, dry finish as taste with lingering yeast and mild bitterness. Overall, not the most complex NEIPA and malt is a little high in the taste (which would make sure if age guess above is correct) but a nice effort.
