This beer is absolutely stupid. It's brewed with Peanut Butter, Strawberry and Bananas. Those ingredients are just absurd.

That said...

It's kind of an ugly beer. Opaque orange banana smoothie appearance. Has a decent pinkish white head with solid retention and lacing.

It smells literally exactly as advertised. It's a PB&J sandwich with a banana on the side. Is this even beer? I don't know. But honestly, I like it. It's a near perfect blend of the listed ingredients.

The flavor is far more sour than expected, but not in a bad way. Lots of peanut butter and lactic acid, with fresh strawberry jam and doughy malt. The banana is more subtle but still there. It's a hidden banana.

The feel is medium bodied with good carbonation. Dry as hell on the finish.

Overall, this is one of the oddest beers I've ever had, but I still like it. Rating to style, I mean it hits all the expected notes, it just happens to throw fuckin peanut butter and bananas in there.

Poured into a 16 oz Snulip glass canned on 12/28/2020. Pours a cloudy orange pink with a 2 finger sticky off white head that leaves thin lines of lace with excellent retention. 4.25

Aroma starts with peanut butter, strawberry, banana, and maybe a little vanilla. 4

Taste follows peanut butter, strawberry, raspberry, vanilla, and banana a little sour, but not too much and I appreciate that. 4

Mouthfeel is above average, maybe a tad dry, plenty of prickly carbonation, and at 5% ABV bigger in flavor, but very drinkable. 4.25

Overall I am slowly starting to appreciate sours way more often and I actually really enjoyed what Kettlehead Brewing did with this one. 4
