About This Beer
How did River Styx get this stunner to taste so much like a liquid Reese’s? They conditioned it on actual Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and Reese’s Pieces!
Tasting Notes
Thick, fudgy currents of decadent dark chocolate cascade into creamy peanut butter on every quaff, with a roasty mocha note rising on the end. Balanced, confectionary flavors all hide an enormous 12% ABV.

A decent stout but not really getting any peanut butter cup flavor. Light chocolate flavor but missing the oomph the Oreo stout had.

Bold, decadent stout with a strong peanut butter exhale without being too sweet. Would definitely buy again, River Styx is always incredible

I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought this was awful. Would love to know when this beer was canned. It was definitely oxidized. Tasted like a sour dark juice. Drain pour!!

Glad for the other reviews so I know I'm not crazy! I love a sour, but I was really hankering for thick peanut butter goodness, and unfortunately something went off here. No peanut butter flavor, hardly any chocolate. Not rating because of the fluke so hopefully it doesn't log as a 0.

Yes this is to die for certainly. Just like I imagined a delicious boozy Reeces. Full body of course but not as heavy as you may think, the Eros was much thicker hence all of the Oreos. This was great. Delicious decadent peanut butter aftertaste. Smooth!

Something wasn't right with this one. Not quite the worst beer I've ever had but very close to it. I persevered through about 1/3 of the can and couldn't stomach anymore. I hope it didn't ruin my drain on the way down.

this should’ve remained cold. The milk sugar turned and had an awful sour finish in the aftertaste

Not rated as the beer may have shipped infected. Many posts on Untappd of this beer shipped from Tavour having off flavors of sour and/or smoked masking the expected PB and chocolate notes.

I choked down 1/2 of this before coming on here to see if anyone else thought this tasted off. Dumped the rest down the sink. Sour and fizzy.

Unfortunately, as like so many others, I must have received two of the cans from the corrupted batch distributed by Tavour. Undrinkable, and disgustingly sour. It’s a shame, as I was genuinely looking forward to this.
