A beautifully aromatic and balanced milk stout with delicious notes of peanut butter, coffee, and dark chocolate. This dark, mythical beer nods to the long-passed legends of our region’s seafarers. (Does not contain nuts or peanuts)

Great beer. Bought 4pk in Savannah GA. Also had the imperial version at local brewery. Too bad can't find this in NE Ohio. If you like chocolate peanut butter stout, you should purchase this beer.

The peanut butter like flavor is very prominent, unpleasantly so. There is very little about this that feels or tastes like a stout. That peanut butter like flavor tastes even more like burnt creme brule. This milk stout does not have the creaminess of a typical stout, not does it have the rich dark malty taste. I would not buy it again. Quite disappointing despite the strong recommendation given at a regional craft beer store.

I guess that decides it - I really don’t care for peanut butter in my stout. Sweet, cloying as it warms.

This is what happens when you don’t pay attention to the details. I had heard that this was a tasty beer, and it is, but it is billed as a “Milk Stout” and not a peanut butter milk stout. I just wasn’t expecting peanut butter.
It looks like a stout, decent beige head with little lacing. Aroma is lost on my nose, Covid caused I think.
The taste was good, likely great if peanut butter in your beer is a good thing. It rather overpowers the base stout, so balance is an issue. But it’s still tasty.
The feel for the ABV is pretty impressive, nice body.
OA, very nice PB Milk Stout. If you like those, look into this.

This beer is interesting. All of the comments you read here are accurate.

This doesn't have a lot more flavor than your normal milk stout -- it has a lot more other flavors. The flavor starts at stout but then brings in an overwhelming peanut butter / hazelnut combination, almost like you were drinking hazelnut coffee mixed with the beer. To me, the non-beer flavor is overwhelming and hides whether the overall beer is well made. I sense they hide some sins under that flavor.

I think it would be best served in 4-6 oz tasters to everyone with dessert after dinner. For drinking a whole pint... it's a bit much.
