Winter Mashfest 2019 People's Choice - Corey Phipps
Robust Porter with Peanut Butter and Black Currant flavoring

Is there anything more nostalgic than a peanut butter and jelly sandwich? The sweetness of the jelly, the smoothness of the peanut butter and the inevitable moment when it sticks to the roof of your mouth. Mix it all together and it’s a beautiful thing. This beer was created out of a love for this time-honored treat. So, revisit the good old days and raise a glass to your inner child!
