Poured from 650mL bottle. Cloudy copper brown with minimal light beige head. Lightly toasted caramel with mild maple syrup. A little artificial and lacking in body.

Hazy dark amber color, small head, vegetables. Medium body; no malt depth, too much vegetables, some petrol.
Not good.

Dark amber-brown, with a thin head. This is a sweet beer, though a touch thin, and has a vaguely toffeeish element. I don’t really see the point - it’s not really hitting the rich sweetness of the better examples and ultimately that’s a problem. This is thinnish, without malt complexity. Disappointing effort.

650mL bottle, pours a deep dark mahogany with a small beige head. Aroma brings out light maple notes, followed by toasted caramel and bready malt. Flavour is pretty thin, with light maple, toasted caramel and bready malt. Thin and lacking complexity. Very lame.

Bottle - Touch of grains, caramel, maple syrup and cocoa. Deep brown with a decent beige head. Much as it smells, roasty caramel and sweetness.
