Can shared at Alex's birthday. Thanks Andrew! Pours a deep brown with a full finger of beige head that dissipates. Big maple forward nose with, coffee and chocolate malt as it warms. Smooth and sweet, but not overly cloying for the adjuncts used. The coffee balances everything out nicely. Lingering maple, chocolate and coffee on the finish. --- Beer merged from original tick of Double Stack on 23 Feb 2019 at 00:15 - Score: 8

Taste from a can. Pours black, with a small, tan ring. The aroma is maple, coffee, black pepper, rye, and toffee. Sweet and sugary, with a mild bitterness. Thick and chewy. Nice and decadent, yet surprisingly balanced.

Tall can during Kump's smashed week. Pours a dark brown with a beige head. Aroma is maple syrup, fudge, some roasted malt. Taste is pretty similar with lots of maple syrup which is pretty good balanced by sweetness, fudge, and caramel. Good stuff.

Pours a deep, dark, brown-black, with smallish, tan head. Aroma is full of maple syrup, with some coffee and chocolate for good measure. Flavor is maple syrup, coffee, chocolate, vanilla. It's pretty sweet, but not cloyingly so. The maple and the coffee are pretty well-integrated. Very smooth. Just a touch sticky. Alcohol content very well-hidden. This stuff is great--at least on par with Founders Canadian Breakfast Stout and maybe a touch better.

Draught @ MBCC 2018, Yellow Session
Pours dark brown with a tan head. Aroma has notes of roasted malt, maple syrup, vanilla, chocolate, coffee, cocoa and alcohol. Taste is medium to heavy sweet and medium bitter with a long warm, roasted, maple syrup, chocolate, coffee and cocoa finish. Body is full, texture is oily, carbonation is soft.
