Isley Brewing Company
Choosy Mother Peanut Butter Porter
Gosh, do I enjoy a reeses peanut butter cup.
Sweet Baby Jesus by DuClaw is the benchmark.
Super peanut butter nose.
A thin layer of fudge gives way to a bit of sour(?) peanut butter.
Intriguing. Grabbed a couple pita chips to insure palate fatigue not a factor.
Almost like a chocolate peanut butter and jelly- there is some sour cherry interwoven somehow.
Would make an interesting competitor to SBJ in a side by side comparison.
Skol!
Why do they not make Reece's Peanut Butter Cups with jelly?
Regardless, that sounds tasty.

I just swung by Isley today for a pick up. Through the extremely brief conversation I had with the girl who carried it out to the parking spot, I found out they are selling a "Shit-ton" of the Choosy Mother. (Her words, not mine)

Lickinghole Creek German Chocolate Cake
I guessed incorrectly this would be a stout.
Flavourer lager???
Amber pour, rich head.
Nose indeterminate.
Get a lot of “scratchy coconut” on the palate.
Way lighter, way thinner mouthfeel than I would have expected.
German Chocolate Cake? Maybe.
Tasty beer? Absolutely!
Skol!

Not sure I am on board with a PB&J reeses, although I do like PB&J.

From last PM:
Ol' Rugger-
Zaftig Brewing Company
Locally brewed, locally consumed
Credit-son; many thanks for sharing would be an understatement for this brew
Style-BBA imperial stout
Format-12 ounce bottle ($15 ), shared 3 ways
Bottling date-2019 (probably 1/2019 or 2/2019)
Stemware-snifters
Appearance-oh, so close to midnight black; thin, mocha head
Nose-boozy, dark chocolate fudge
Mouthfeel-20W50; darn near chewy
Tastes-dark chocolate bourbon balls, molasses, dark fruit, hint of coffee, char
Adjuncts-none listed
IBU-SWAG of 50
ABV-16%; hence the 3 way share; bourbon not hidden at all but not overpowering
Overall impression-as good, if not better that Bourbon County or just about any other BBA RIS I've ever tasted; celebrating children's milestones=even better
Ymm, Beer rating-top, front and center of cat 3, with a ribbon, bow and medal; an amazing concoction

Never Recover 3 - The Veil - 5.3 % - Sour-Fruited Gose with triple boysenberry and triple peach slice puree
Thicc smoothie creamy purple pour. Fantastic berry sour aroma.
Holy fruit puree mouthfeel batman. Fruit coats your palate and the glass.
The taste starts quite tart fun boysenberry flavor. The peaches blend nicely with the berry in this smoothie. It finishes smooth. Gorgeous balance of flavors. One of the best gose's I've tasted.
Low Cat 3 but very close to mid 3. Quite amazing, but quintessential Veil stuff.
Thanks accfan!! What an incredibly juicy Veil haul this has been. Drinking each one is an experience all serious beer drinkers must have (if you like fruit). And I'm still not sure it's beer, but oh man do they pull these off.
My turn...
Another tale of two pours.
Love Ninja got the first half, I got the chunky half.
Gorgeous raspberry violet in the glass.
Fruit content makes it look like a smoothie or all head.
Loaded peach syrup nose.
As RJ said above, thick. I’ll say it again- thick.
Really smoothie consistency.
Tart, edge of Sour Patch territory tart.
The tartness is similar to when you eat a just underripe blackberry.
Mid palate is where the peach shines before returning to a dry tart finish.
Another Veil beer that knocks it out of the park.
Thanks Compass Rose Brew Crew!
Skol!
Speaking of Veil:
NeverRecover3-The Veil Brewing Company
Local for the delivery fellow last month
Credit-accfanfrom1970; huge thanks!!
Style-fruited gose (but I really think it's a beer smoothie)
Format-next size up aluminum cylinder from 12 ounces
Stemware-Hardywood GBS teku
Appearance-raspberry sherbet with a foamy, pink head
Nose-berries and peaches
Mouthfeel-fruity, juicy, creamy
Tastes-(boysen)berries and peach jam, a combination I don't think I've ever tasted; hint of salt; a liquid Sweetart/Sour Patch candy; (no way this stuff is beer)
Adjuncts-triple boysenberry and peach
IBU-must be <10
ABV-5.3% (yep, another Veil beer smoothie)
Overall impression-amazing combination of ingredients in an old German style ale
Ymm, Beer rating-low/mid cat 3; good pairing with a grilled bacon, chicken club sandwich; keep those Veil beers coming!!
