Rock & Run’s Vanilla Peanut Butter Stout

It’s close to Halloween so if you want a liquid form of the orange and black wrapped peanut butter candies you get trick-or-treating (do those have a name?), then drink Rock & Run’s Vanilla Peanut Butter Stout.

I attended Screenland Armour‘s Retro BREWvies on Monday, mainly to try the stout by Rock & Run Brewery.  The event was great especially since there was a max attendance of 60 and only 5 people attended; made the theatre a little more cozy.  The feature film was Back to the Future II which was fun to watch considering the future they go to is October 21, 2015.  We have a little over a year to get some hoverboards and sleeveless books produced.  Cell phones will be nonexistent and that might be a good thing.

So, about the beer.  Are you a fan of the candies I stated above?  I actually enjoy those Halloween treats, so the beer started off a delight for me.  The aroma and original mouth feel was that of those candies.  The backend had a sour taste that I’m not sure was intentional.  If they can figure out how to get rid of the sour taste, this would be an excellent beer.  It paired well with the dessert served by Screenland, sweet plantains and roasted butternut squash.

For now, I’d give the beer a 6 out of 10.  It should still be on tap at Screenland Armour and at Rock & Run Brewery’s brewpub in Liberty.
