Draught @ Beer Temple, Chicago, IL. Opaque very dark brown with very small frothy tan head that leaves a ring fast, nutty dark chocolate aroma, low carbonation, initially sweet then medium bitterdark chocolate-walnut-maple syrup taste, alcohol undertones, smooth body, long nuttymaple chocolate finish. I could pour this on a pancake for breakfast!

Вроде бы просто очень добротный шоколадно-кофейный стаут по началу, что сегодня уже не удивляет. Но подождав с минуту, появляется тонкая пленка кленового сиропа, что необычно и весьма круто по вкусу, а не только по сути.

Splurging on the second-largest draft pull here. Deep brown -black color, very thin ring of foam. Huge blast of maple right in the glass. Drinks like a thickened maple & chocolate syrup that should be poured on pancakes. This is indeed living up to its reputation, and I'm happy to have finally gotten a chance at it. Still yielding up some interesting bits: now some baking cocoa. Now some sweet bourbon filled chocolates.
