Imperial brown ale with strawberry, banana, and peanut butter. Just like you enjoyed as a kid.

This one pours a really murky and really ugly-looking brown color, with a small head, and no real lacing.
This smells mostly like peanut butter, but there's definitely some jammy and seedy strawberry, and a hint of almost over-ripe banana.
This is an extremely confusing and not entirely well put-together beer. It's essentially the fruiting level (and other adjunct-level) of a smoothie-style sour, but on a brown ale base. The base beer is absolutely obliterated here, just kind of a messy sweet base underneath the listed additions. Peanut butter leads the way, with the fruits being secondary here. If this was dialed back, and the base brown ale beefed up, this would be more enjoyable to me.
This is very lightly carbonated, and just feels kind of messy on the palate. It feels just too heavy and too flabby.
People locally seem to be freaking out about this series, and I don't honestly see why here. This sort of thing works better with a more neutral "sour" base.
