Pours they hazed orange/pink with rapidly falling beige head, there are floaties in this. Zero head retention and lacing
S: Fruit punch grapefruit, and nuttiness once warm
T; Hibiscus tea citrus and fruit punch very dry up front. Some pomegranates notes and jamminess as a spear worms and fruit punch and nuttiness. Finish is nutty and dry with some jamminess and fruit punch sweetness
MF: Medium body low carbonation acidic notes with enamel clinging stickiness
Such a strange beer; not easy to drink this definitely was not my jam

A very nice surprise...
The beer had a nice dark caramel color, but it was overblown by the smell - it was amazingly the scent of bread, jelly, and peanut butter - liquid of course. It was amazing. Mouthfeel was crisp but it had a slight astringent taste that was a result of the light sour flavor that actually balanced the sweet almost dessert beer taste of this offering.

Pours a hazed thin pink raspberry color with a thin whispy head. Smell is PB&J with cracker bread. Taste is tart raspberry,strawberry fruit with definite PB&J finish along nutty biscuit taste. Mouth is tart and fruity, Twas very good 10oz would have been enough and i thoroughly enjoyed it.

Poured a light purplish/dark pink body with no head or lace. Aroma is semi-lactic with a nuttiness from the peanut butter as well. Light bodied beer, has that sweet and tart jelly combo that is great (I can't pin down the jelly but I'll go with raspberry due to tartness), and this "jelliness" mixes with a nutty dryness and finishes easy.

Opaque Swedish Fish red with thin fuzzy wisps and a moderate collar.
Smell is distinctly peanut butter with Berliner crackery biscuit, while taste features mostly the tart raspberry on its own, so it's not the full on PB&J effect, but it's enjoyably playful, with a softly fluffy full body and a lighty semi-dry finish.
