Bottle thanks to Billy. It pours darkest brown to black with a small beige head. The aroma is soft, sweet, sticky, roasted malt, maple syrup, chocolate cake, sugary, dark fruits, vanilla cake frosting, coconut and bourbon. The taste is slick, oily, sticky, toothy, rich roasted malt, decadent, vanilla, bourbon, roasted coconut, spice, touch if booze, earthy, toffee, caramel, spice, jam and some warmth with a drying finish. Full body and fine, foamy carbonation. Smooth, rounded and dangerous.

Pours black. Smell is coffee, milder maple than 2019. Intense, bit boozy. Taste is full, roasty, maple, sweet, heavy on the coffee ( heavier than 2019 ) . Less maple, more bitterness as well. Nice, but not of the same level as 2019.

Power tasting at Salesforce, bottle
Flat black colour. Compared to the Hug Hug Kiss Kiss just tasted, this as well is liquid chocolate, it's way more sweet (loses a bit in balance), very rich in maple, I wouldn't have thought of coffee if I didn't know, but maybe it helps to balance a bit the sugars; the alcohol is barely noticeable.
Over the top, but excellent.

very dark brown head with massive maple syrup, chocolate and coffee. Smooth, rich sweet, tons of maple, liquid chocolate, not cloying, very rounded, smooth. It has an interesting nuttiness. Excellent depth.
