Peanut Butter Gorilla Juice
Ascension Brewing Company

A - Pours pitch black with a thin tan head. Light sticky lacing.

S - Aroma is heavy peanut butter, roasted malts and dark chocolate.

T - The taste is peanut butter, dark chocolate, roasted malts and vanilla. Mild alcohol burn in the finish.

M - Full body with medium/ low carbonation. Creamy mouthfeel with crisp dry finish.

O - This is a huge stout. Flavors are on point with the alcohol adding a huge punch. Definitely a slow sipper.

This one pours a very dark black color, with a small mocha-colored head, and not much lacing.

This smells like heavy roast, dry smoke, creamy peanut butter, dark chocolate, and vanilla.

The ABV and heft of this beer is certainly apparent - it's got huge smokey and boozy bitterness to it that only exponentially increases as it warms up. The peanut butter does add some nice sweetness, though. It's a fairly chocolatey base. The vanilla is kind of faint.

This is silky, but bitter on the finish, with a heavy booze character. It's a slow sipper.

This has a lot good going on for it, but it is also just crushingly boozy. I think more vanilla sweetness would bury a bit of that.
