Peanuts in beer. It's a phenomenon that seems to have come from nowhere in recent months and this is the third one to come my way since December. This one is called Peanut Butter Milk Stout, from milk stout maestros Left Hand.
It smells intriguing, and not really of peanut butter, though that's not something I eat much of. Instead I get chocolate wafers and caramel, with a pinch of salt. A further surprise arrives on tasting: strawberry, raspberry and a little peach juice, before we're back to milk chocolate and crisp wafer. It's a strange and random combination, but it works. And despite the sweetness, the busyness and 6.2% ABV, it's remarkably easy to drink.
As daft novelty beers go, this is one of the better ones. I guess it's Left Hand's skills with milk stout shining through. Give it a go. At €2.50 a can, what could go wrong?
