First sip is ... odd. It's not exactly PB&J, but it is an artistic impression of what PB&J might taste like if Salvador Dali interpreted sandwiches in beer form. It has the peanuts, and it has the sweetness with the berries, but there is a strange bitterness that doesn't seem to belong to any of the good tastes in the beer. Maybe a swig?
Tip-in is peanuts, a really watery kind of jelly, almost no carbonation, and a bit of grains. The middle is much more grainy than anything, but it has the peanuts to guide it along the throat. The finish is a harsh bite of tartness with the peanuts, jelly, and some yeast. Trail off is a strange warping of peanut butter and smoke.
Bottom Line: Not terrible, but it can't seem to maintain interest through the entire can. It kind of overstays its welcome, as is the nature of a lot of these novelty beers.
2.25/5
