Can: Poured a clear deep brown color ale with a medium size foamy head with average retention and not lacing. Aroma of caramel malt with notes of maple syrup. Taste is dryer then expected with clear notes of caramel malt and a maple finish. Body is a bit thin with good carbonation. Maple notes were surprising but overall a bit of a run of the mill beer.

Dark brown with a foamy off-white head.Slightly malty nose with cardboard. Malts come out without much interest, slightly sweet notes, with signs of oxidation. Body is light to medium. Uninteresting.

Aroma is not good at all but the flavour makes up for its loss. Dark coffee colour and taste with other hints of dark malts and molasses. Slight burnt flavour to both. Finish is slightly bitter with continuing coffee notes.

Chestnut brown. Apple and coffee aroma. Lightish body, fairly dry, rather complex, but perhaps on the edge of feeling thin.

Dark chestnut colour. Aroma shows fairly assertive (for this brewery) caramel-toffee flavour and a whiff of dying embers. The body is a light, but these flavours persist. Dries as it goes.
