My first brew was only a few months back. I also went with a brown ale LME kit. Only I added PB2 (powdered peanut butter) in the last 3 minutes of the boil. It turned out to be the best beer I've tasted. Since then, I've made 2 milk stouts. They are both pretty good, but not as good as the pb brown ale. Gotta brew that one again. Anyway, congratulations on your first brew. And good luck on your many future brews. You're hooked now.

I'm brewing a Pale Ale next! Pb brown ale sound interesting. How strong was the peanut butter? Is it similar to adding chocolate where there is just a hint?
