Taster at brewery. Dark brown pour, ring of beige head. Aroma has light notes of peanut butter, roasty malts, chocolate. Taste allows the stout to shine through, peanut butter is present as an accent. Smooth

Twisted Gingers Brewing Co. "Nutz About Philly"
16 fl. oz. can
Notes via stream of consciousness: This is an Imperial Peanut Stout. The label notes that it "Contains: Peanuts" but also "NATURAL FLAVORS". So who do you think of when you think of peanuts? George Washington Carver, right? Anyway, it's poured an opaque black body that gives only a glimmer of mahogany brown along the base of the glass when held to direct light. The head is a cap of tan but it's not that dense and I can see it starting to break apart already. In the nose I'm getting dark chocolate and peanuts as might be expected. Beyond that it's clean, and there's no yeasty fruitiness. On to the taste... it's not overdone with peanut but it's definitely clear. It's on the sweeter side but not sweet, and that works really nicely with the peanut. I'm guessing it's probably around 15 to 18 IBUs. As it's warming it's opening up and the chocolate is widening into a blend of milk chocolate and the darker, bittersweet chocolate that I found in the aroma. There's some nice dark golden and more reddish-golden caramel to it, and a splash of black coffee roastiness. I'm also getting some fruitiness that's like apples and berries, and there's some of that in the aroma as well. It's nicely balanced all-around including the depth of malt sweetness, the bitterness, the complexity of its flavors, the body (medium-full) and smooth carbonation, and the overall intensity of the beer. It's not big and brash, but more like a sweeter stout that could could drink at any time, keeping in mind that it is still 9.1%! I wouldn't call it a dessert beer right off the bat although you could certainly use it that way, or even add it as an ingredient into something else. I will say that it does make a nice after dinner sipper though.
