Peanut butter and/or Whiskey nerds - has anyone tried 'Skrewball Peanut Butter Whiskey'
- Thread starter signal
- Start date
There's a local distillery that sells a peanut butter whiskey, except the bottle refers to it as an "Imitation Peanut Butter" whiskey, which put me off of it. So, I'm glad to hear these impressions, cause they might make me buy a bottle of their peanut butter whiskey.
I'm only aware of this due to Conan roasting it on his podcast. I wouldn't mind trying it at some point
My buddies dig it, but 8 of them have had covid in the last several weeks, so I don't see them until it's over. Can't wait to try it. But I will.

I like either on its own, but a shot of this (because I've never seen a case where someone would actually sip it) momentarily kills me and then fills me with a sense of longing and regret.
As others have said not as bad as one would imagine. I don't generally care for scotch or whiskey but my old restaurant served this so I've had it a fair few times and enjoyed it. We did a little play on a nuts and berries cocktail. I don't remember exactly what we used (half and half and chambord probably.) Maybe we used the Frangelico too I don't know. Anyway, it's a good drink and works quite well in dessert cocktails. It's not something I'd drink a lot of though. It's too rich for thatHas anyone tried this and if so how peanut buttery is it? As someone who dislikes most alcohol but likes PB I need to know.
Also, I've had several other peanut butter whiskeys and they were all terrible in my opinion. This one is head and shoulders above the rest
As much as I love peanut I'm not sure I'd enjoy drinking it..
I'd probably try it at least once
Pretty much. It's whiskey for people that hate whiskey.
I'm a whiskey person and was skeptical. I wouldn't drink it straight (or at least, not when I want whiskey), but my partner has made some pretty great cocktails using it. Like an old fashioned, Manhattan, etc. Get yourself some chocolate bitters. Smooth and desert-y. I'd highly recommend.
Screwball is great to sip on its on as a change up and with a mixer of milk (I use vanilla almond milk) it tastes a lot like a white russian for some reason. Very refreshing
I actually prefer Sheepdog Peanut Butter Whiskey. Screwball is fine but it actually to me tasted too much like Peanut Butter, a bit too syrupy? Sheep Dog to me has great Peanut Butter flavor but still can taste that it's a whisky and it doesn't taste overly fake and like syrup which to me was problem with Screwball.
Haha order d a bottle from instacart (along with a 1.5 liter of crown royal) and had it here within 35 minutes of reading this thread.
nice sipping while sitting in the hot tub

This right here's making me want to get a bottle of my local PB whiskey. I can't believe I never once had this thought cross my mind.
This makes sense. I'll probably stay away since I'm not huge on candy booze. I don't like my drinks to be too sweet.
This was my experience. My wife and I drink a fair amount of straight whiskey (mostly scotch and bourbon), and we found this disgusting. Maybe it works in mixed drinks, but we didn't find any way to mix it we liked. We gave it away.
Screwball tastes like liquid Reese's Pieces. It's super sweet and better in small amounts IMO. Definitely worth trying and mixing though.
Less sweet options that taste more like actual PB (SQRRL in particular) would be -
