Refrigerated brown bottle poured into a glass. Black with medium beige head. Aroma is nice coffee, medium/thick body, medium carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is bold coffee (but not over the top for me), rich maple syrup (but not cloying for me), vanilla, and chocolate.

Keg at Bazil’s, 2/18/22. Black, thin creamy tan head, good retention. Aroma of strong maple, caramel, vanilla. Taste is strong maple, vanilla, coffee. Hint of roast. Roast and coffee grow as it warms, leading to more balance thankfully. Pretty sweet overall, but, booze is hidden extremely well. Full bodied, slick. Glass was actually sticky. Price matched the ABV for an 8 ounce glass.

2021 bottle massive thanks to BillyT. It pours oily jet black with a dark tan head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, tangy, filthy, massive maple syrup, biggest coffee action, dark chocolate, dark chocolate covered coffee bean, spicy, umami, meatiness, touch of hendos, vanilla coffee, donuts and pancakes. The taste is slick, thick, filthy, decadent, chewy, toothy, maple syrup, donut, pancakes, maple glazed waffles, tangy, bright, chewy, massive coffee, dark chocolate covered coffee beans, liquidised chocolate cake, kick of booze, hard roast, spice, charred oak and earth with a slick, oily finish. Fulsome body, fine carbonation and oily, thick mouth feel. Intense and intoxicating.

Draught at BGH (how did that happen): pours oily black with a beige head. Aroma is sublime combo of maple syrup and fragrant espresso with a combination of chocolate and roast to back that up. Taste is rather sweet with the maple taking up most of the space, but the flavors mentioned in aroma are all represented well. This is an expertly crafted beer.

Flaska från TG, 2020. Svart med gräddig khakifärgad krona. Rejält med lönnsirap och kaffe i doften. Lönnsirapen i förgrunden, kaffet väl integrerad med smakbilden. Stor, kladdig kropp. Lönnsirap, kaffe, choklad, kokos, bounty, vaniljwafers, kex. Rejäl sötma, balanseras något av kaffet och beska. Mycket gott, stor i smaken. Välgjort. Kanske inte den mest komplexa ölen. Möjligtvis något hög sötma som blir lite mycket efter ett tag. Men ändå fantastiskt gott.
