Notes

Very tasty beer! The descriptors that were relayed to me from others were nutter butter cookies, reeses, nutty, etc. This reminded me of a straight up reeses cup. Brewing this one again for the new year '21. The only recommendations that I can make are to possibly switch out the cocoa powder for toasted cocoa nibs for more chocolate flavor, or do both.
