Our savory, Salted Peanut Butter Cup Porter is made with 100% All-Natural Teddie Peanut Butter, from Everett, MA. Big notes of peanut butter and cocoa intermingle with a mild salinity from an addition of sea salt. Velvety and unctuous.

Ok .... Neighbor gave this to me months ago and I forgot about it ..... Consequently, the born on date is almost one year ago ... Still, it's a real flavor bomb and if this is your style you must try

Pours a deep, chestnut-brown body capped with two fingers of dingy beige foam; solid head retention leaves a slight layer of cap, a modest collar surrounding the surface, and limited array of webby lacing caked to the walls of the glass.

Aromas of creamy peanut butter meet soft salinity upfront; notes of cocoa husk form with mild roast, leaving touches of residual dark chocolate interspersed throughout the bouquet.

Taste brings dark chocolate and mild roast as edges of peanut butter fade to salt-roasted peanuts past the mid-palate and a mineralic char yields hints of nutty husk on the back end of the profile.

Mouthfeel shows a body on the lighter end of medium, with an almost spritzy fluff of moderate carbonation yielding frothy creaminess fading quickly to flaky dryness over the mid-palate as a distantly acrid bittering lingering through a wavering finish.

Notes of promise and brief pangs of richness fold as a weaker adjunct profile fades to passivity and a malt roast takes hold; a decent drinker, if not the more flavorful expression of PB one might hope for.
