A very nice brown color with a slight head and lacing, a very pleasant peanut butter aroma and taste. A medium bodied beer with decent carbonation and a nice character.

Dark brown almost black with a medium tan headed. Head dissipated pretty quick and minimal lacing. Ignore that though because it’s all about the taste. And oh what a tasty treat it is!!!!! Smells of strong chocolate notes with big time peanut butter, and the taste followed. Appropriate mouthfeel for this style of beer. Flavour is tremendous! Highly recommend brew!!!!

Had on-tap at the Main Street Pub in Bally. Poured into a goblet.
L: Nearly black pour... 2 fingers of foamy brown head. Great rim of lacing.
S: Rich and roasty... chocolate and peanut butter as promised.
T/F: Rich and roasty... big time porter that drinks almost like a stout. Espresso and cocoa... light peanut butter but definitely present. Mild sweetness to go with the bitter roast but it doesn't drink like a dessert. Medium bodied... rich and sticky. Finish is more bitter coffee laced with peanut butter and cocoa.
O: A big flavorful porter... interesting mix of flavors that mostly worked... and that only because the peanut butter isn't overpowering. A sipper... one I'd enjoy occasionally but not regularly. Glad I got to try it!
