peanut butter stout

Peanut butter is a spread that divides people. While some find the peanut butter sticky, greasy, and too rich, others can’t get enough of it and dream of their morning toast with peanut butter and jam. We’re among the fans of this nutty topping and enjoy it for breakfast on bread or toast, as well as in the savory and fiery Thai cuisine. And we certainly wouldn’t say no to peanut butter in beer!

The Franconian brewery Orca has a real treat for all peanut lovers in its lineup: their newest American-style stout not only brings robust barley and oat malt to the glass, but also the unmistakable taste of peanut butter. This nutty delight is thanks to peanut butter powder, which conjures a subtle yet full-bodied and irresistible peanut note in the beer. No artificial frills, just real peanuts.

Orcas Peanut Butter Stout pours into the glass the color of freshly brewed espresso and tastes just like it: espresso meets robustly roasted grain, rich dark chocolate, a hint of caramel, mild hops, and an exquisite note of creamy peanut butter. The flavors are perfectly balanced, forming a flavorful whole that allows both the base stout and the peanut notes to shine. If you like peanut butter, you’ll love this beer!
