The DuClaw Sweet Baby Banana! is an irresistibly decadent Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Porter with 5.5% ABV from DuClaw Brewing Company in Maryland. As the seductive successor to the cult favorite Sweet Baby Jesus! Chocolate Peanut Butter Porter, it expands the proven chocolate-peanut butter base with the rich sweetness of ripe bananas, creating a flavor experience that inevitably evokes a liquid banana split dessert. In the glass, it presents a deep dark brown color with a creamy, beige-white foam crown, while a tempting aroma of caramel, cocoa, coffee, and ripe bananas transitions into a full-bodied, medium-weight initial taste where chocolate, banana fruitiness, and toast move in waves across the palate before the peanut butter with its nutty, creamy note comes in, finishing in a broad, woody hop finish with a slight coffee aftertaste. The DuClaw Sweet Baby Banana! is the perfect choice for all pastry stout enthusiasts and dessert beer lovers seeking a characterful, aromatically playful, and surprisingly balanced American porter that impresses both as a standalone treat for special evenings and as a worthy companion to chocolate desserts and aged cheeses alike.
