Appearance: Deep brown in color, virtually black, with a moderate, somewhat coarse dark tan head, with superb retention. Thick Belgian-style lacing adorns the glass wall.
Aroma: Peanut butter dominates the aroma, with prominent notes of vanilla, milk chocolate coffee, and roasted malt. One thing that is absent from the aroma is any note of alcohol. In fact, Reindiculous' aroma is more like that of a peanut butter milk shake.
Taste: The taste opens with strong notes of roasted malt and vanilla. The peanut butter is present, although more restrained than in the aroma. later in the taste, there is a wave of bitter cocoa and cold coffee. As with the aroma, the presence of alcohol, at a considerable 11.8%, is noted only in its gentle warmth. Throughout the taste, there is a sweet undercurrent somewhat like brown sugar, with a subtle maple flavor. There is a bit of a burnt and wood note at the end of the taste and a lingering, mild herbal bitterness.
Mouth feel: Smooth, creamy and full, much like whole milk, with just a hint of soft carbonation.
Drinkability/notes: An outstanding dessert beer that would pair well with both chocolate and vanilla desserts. Cheers!
Presentation: Packaged in a standard twelve-ounce aluminum can, served in a La Fin du Monde tulip.

I’m not sure if their standard stout is like this but this just tasted off. Flakes of chocolate make it look like It is curdled milk and give it a really weird aftertaste

Poured from a can into a snifter
Appearance – The beer pours a nearly pitch-black color with a one finger head of tan colored foam. The head has a fantastic level of retention, slowly fading over time to leave a tiny bit of foamy lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma of the brew is massive of a roasted peanut butter smell mixed with tons of nice roasted malt as well as some hints of coffee. Along with these smells comes notes of vanilla and a rather decent showing of a creaminess, producing a nice peanut butter cup like smell overall.
Taste – The taste begins with a rather big hit of dry roasted peanuts as well as some nice dark roasted malt flavors. Upfront there is also a good showing of coffee, that with the roasted malt gets even stronger as the taste advances. Throughout the taste there is also a decent showing of brown sugar and molasses, creating a sweet backdrop throughout the brew. As the taste advances from the start other flavors of a crème and vanilla develop at the expense of some of the peanut butter. Toward the very end the flavors are all met with a bit of char and some light alcohol booziness, leaving one with a nice roasted and toasted, light white chocolate like PB, taste to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel – The body of the brew is quite thick and chewy with a carbonation level that is on the slightly lower side. For the nice roasted PB/white chocolate taste of the brew the feel is rather well done and makes for a nice slow dessert like sipper.
Overall – A rather tasty and robust sipper. Not sure I like it as much as Ridiculous AF, but it is tasty and a nice fun spin off to try if you have the opportunity.
