We brew this big, dark and heavy stout with cocoa and roasted peanuts for a candy-like experience for your palate. This beer has been one of our most sought after. This beer also serves as a base for other Mucker's such as Coffee Mucker and Raspberry Mucker.

Had this one on tap at the brewery. This one had a nice look to it. The smell was chocolate and roasty. The taste was some chocolate up front with a touch of peanuts at the end. Overall it was fine. It didn't seemed as balance as it could have been.

Had this on 2019-02-06 in Bolingbrook, IL at The Beer Market on tap.
Good stuff. Too busy with dinner conversations to take notes but I liked it well enough to pay a visit to the brewery the next evening.

I tried the Fonkey Mucker at the brewery and it was decent. It poured an opaque black with off white head that did not leave much lace. The scent had chocolate and maybe hint of peanut butter. The taste was nicely balanced and perfect for sipping. There was nice chocolate base with some roast and peanut flavor. The Mouthfeel was fuller in body with smooth carbonation. Overall it's a solid beer.

10oz draft pour at the tasting room. I'm not really sure of the color, due to the lighting in the room, but it seemed a red tinted deep dark brown.
Peanut butter aroma is cool and different.
Flavors are peanuts, booze and a hint of cocoa.
Heavy, low carbonation, and a lingering peanut butter alcohol finish.

Taste: nutty, peanuts, chocolate, dark roasted notes, some alcohol bite in the finish. Subtle smooth stout, not sticky or thick. Very dark brown in color and mostly opaque with a delicate webbed lattice.
Medium, almost full body. I noticed the nose was semi sweet, cocoa and slightly nutty. You can drink more than one.
