Canned on 1/26/22; consumed on 3/7/22
Pours a deep, murky chestnut-brown body, with a lightly perceptible off-white effervescence frothing tentatively at the surface before phasing to a blank void and paper-thin collar, while minimal-no lacing holds to the walls of the glass.
Aroma highlights rich peanut butter enveloped in maple, fluctuating from decadent to nuttier textures across the bouquet, with a delicate, oaky char melding to malted dark chocolate as a soft whiskey heat meets fading vanilla on the back end.
Taste is overcome with sensations of peanut butter French Toast, with melted dark chocolate and wisps of balancing bourbon poking through as lingering maple tinged with rich, nutty peanut butter persists over the mid-palate; lingering vanilla is mild, though present enough to project a finish redolent of chocolate-covered Nutter Butters and burnt toast.
Mouthfeel offers a medium body with lower carbonation plodding through dense, creamy textures trending slick over time as sweetness levels shy of syrupy over the mid-palate and a mild warmth finds distant grit into the back end and through the finish.
The mild bourbon a conduit for an approachable take on dessert-like excess, the intensity of the adjuncts at play here transcends the quieter aspects of the style without entirely abandoning a simpler foundation; this is a masterful display of peanut butter integrated within an onslaught of indulgent flavor fitted tightly to the comparatively delicate sensibilities of a barrel-aged brown ale.
