Rise and shine, buttercup - it’s time for breakfast. This imperial version of our infamous Maple Bacon Coffee Porter adds some girthy gravity to the the smokey, salty, rich combo of maple syrup, fresh roasted coffee, and bacon.

Keg at Cask Pub & Kitchen on 8.12.15. Pours black with thin tan head. Aroma of French toast, dried fruits, chocolate and maple syrup. Looks fabulous. Taste is coffee and chocolate with the maple coming through with a hint of bacon and a little booze. So smooth and velvety. Just a fantastically good beer.

Keg at CP&K, 07/12/15. Rich black with a dirty tan head. Nose is full on maple syrup, light coffee cake, tres sweet, toffee fudge, light spice, toasted brown sugar. Taste comprises sweet maple syrup, tiramisu, sweet malt, molasses, chocolate fondue, espresso, melted Toblerone. Full bodied, oily mouthfeel, sweet warming alcohol in the close. A decadent impy for sure but a touch overly sweet for me.

Keg at CPK - London. Pours oily black with a creamy tan head. Massive aroma, tons of maple syrup, hearty chocolate, mild roast, raisins, perhaps a hint of cinnamon. Big sweet flavorbwith lots of gooey chocolate, nicely integrated maple syrup, French toast, baking cocoa, mellow earthy bitterness, soft espresso. Full bodied, oily and chewy, with fine carbonation. Lightly warming finish with some sticky burnt sugars, buckets more maple syrup and liquefied chocolate, vanilla, hints of earth and dark fruits. A pretty awesome over-the-top American adjunct impy.

Keg at CP&K. It pours jet black with a decent tan head. The nose is rich, decadent, camp fire, big maple syrup character, bitter-sweet, rich coffee, coffee chocolate and maple-glazed doughnut. The taste is pretty full-on, rich, bitter-sweet, slick, oily, rich coffee, maple glazed bacon, smoke, charred wood, salted liquorice, warming alcohol, treacle, light curry leaf, burnt marshmallow and cacao nibs with a smooth, warming finish. Full bodied, fine carbonation and slick mouth-feel. Pretty bonkers stuff. Intense and good fun. A touch hot perhaps, but I like it.

Draft, Oakland Park. Near black. Aroma is syrupy sweet molasses, maple donut, bourbon...decadent. Very sweet, again maple doughnut frosting. Very thick body with a slightly boozy kick. Decadent. Not getting much bacon but that’s not a big deal. Moreish for such a beast. You can really see the appeal.

This is the one I came to try. Tap at MBCP release. Pours clear chestnut, medium creamy brown head that dissipates leaving nice lacing. Aroma is coffee chocolate mocha goodness with a strong overtone of maple syrup. Flavor is medium sweet and light bitter, really really good. Medium body, somewhat creamy mouthfeel. Not to be missed.
