Peanut Butter Banana Sammich Stout
903 Brewing
Date: unknown
Pastry Stout
What I have tried from 903; are usually their slushy beers. I am venturing into their stout today. This is like an Elvis take peanut butter and banana. I used a tulip glass; the temperature was 46 degrees. The pour created a frothy and foamy light tan head with dismal retention. The quick retention left no lacing on the glass. The color charts around SRM 36, dark brown, nearly black.
I smell banana, chocolate, and peanut butter first. Next, I detect bread, nuttiness, toffee, and caramel. The peanut butter is stronger than the banana in the nose. Finally, I pick up char, a touch of roasted malts, and earthiness.
The flavors are banana, char, peanut butter, toffee, caramel, and bread. As I continue to sip the beer, dark roasted malts, chocolate, and a slight hint of coffee emerge. The banana is not as prevalent as the peanut butter.
The mouthfeel is creamy and thin. The body is medium-plus, has low carbonation, a quick finish.
The beer lacks the depth of bananas. I taste the peanut butter and all the wonderful flavor associated with dark roasted malts. If the beer tells me it has a banana, I want that. Overall, I thought the stout was a bit thin, it needed more body and depth. What I read is not what I got. It is a decent beer but not something I would seek out again.

it always befuddles me how they get these different flavors in a beer . you get what the label says peanut butter with a banana after taste great sweet stout
