Poured black, like used motor oil black. Very black: The light brown head is short and short lived.
The taste features the peanut butter and, maybe with people with more refined taste than I, has mallow. But for me, that bit merged with the base stout.
The feel is viscous, appropriate for the flavors.
It’s a very good peanut butter stout, but the mallow is faint in comparison.

Had on tap. Pitch black opaque pour with a light brown cap. Smells of peanuts and marshmallow with roasted malt and a touch of smoke. Taste has a lot of smoke to the peanut butter, the marshmallow in comparison is hyper sugary with vanilla candy tones, bittersweet chocolate round out with some earth. Feel is thick, full, heavy, and chewy with some sugars on the end. This one seemed off

Poured from a can at fridge temp. Pours motor oil black (and with that consistency!) with light brown head. The nose is full of peanut butter, vanilla cake icing, confetti cake, marshmallow, and chocolate.
The taste is super smooth. Peanut butter emerges as the dominant ingredient here. Some bitter dark chocolate, coffee grounds, marshmallow, slight maple, burnt toffee, and some charred wood. Definitely not as sweet as suggested by the nose. Really interesting with a lot going on.
The mouthfeel is super thick and creamy. Overall, a very nice stout.

Black motor oil body, thick and opaque, any photons trying to pass thru this glass are swallowed up and destroyed, this thing is darkness incarnate, pour this on a gushing wound to congeal the bleeding its so thick [not real nor qualified medical advice]. LET'S GO. Dark brown silky fine head as well, strong lacing.
Immediately upon pouring I smell pungent peanut butter, marshmallow fluff sweetness, more PB, and finally roasty chocolate malts.
The taste is very well balanced, sure its sweet, but the PB takes on a supporting role to the prominent smoky dark malts, followed by vanilla sweetness and notes of sweet spices- brown sugar, cinnamon, allspice. I barely know what I'm talking about but I feel that each flavor is both grounded and elevated by the strong sweet foundation of alcohol, whose presence can be detected after a sip on exhalation. It's potent, but one could almost be deceived into thinking this is simply a thick sweet peanut butter nectar NA soft drink.
Full bodied, with lasting flavor.
This is one of the more sophisticated dessert beers I've had. Nothing artificial about the PB or marshmallow, they both were integrated so well they could be Reinheitsgebot ingredients. Really very much enjoyed, thanks P3 for thus production.

Curvature 15: Peanut Butter & Marshmallow pours black, with a small, long-lasting tan head. The aroma is sweet, with marshmallow notes, with lots of peanut butter. The flavor is candied peanut butter, sweet. Good feel. Overall, a sweet, candy-filled peanut butter treat.

12oz can. No dating information found.
Black colored body, with very thin garnet red back lit edge. No real head but some surface storm and a very thin ring. No lacing.
Aroma is aromatic with the peanut and marshmallow sitting on top of the roasted malts. Smells sweet (vanilla and marshmallow).
Taste is sweet but alcohol laden. Sweet soaked roasted malts are joined by the peanut and the marshmallow. Sweet peanut and marshmallow follow into the aftertaste.
Less than medium mouth feel, with a little bit of stickiness. Total lack of bitterness. Higher ABV% is hidden, but involved in the smell and flavor. Supportive carbonation.
Very respectful use of peanut butter and marshmallow over a higher ABV% roasted malt stout. No overly artificial smell or flavor, and well balanced for adjuncts.
