Once a year, homebrewers are encouraged to send us their best brews. This time was the fourth time we invite a homebrewer to join us and Siren for a collaborative brew. Dave Strachan submitted a beautiful coconut Porter and so we decided to play along on that theme. Brewed with maple syrup and aromas.

Bottle. A- Maple, vanilla cream, coconut, Swiss Cake Rolls, mildly roasty, A- Black color, black liquid, no head. T- Caramel, maple, coconut, chocolate cake batter, subtle char, mild bourbon. P- Full body, slightly creamy texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- Picked up a bottle in Munich last summer and have been holding for a bit. Decided to make it 3,800 instead of waiting for rate 4,000. This stuff is what the beer gods drink. I thought Omnipollo Noa was good but this might be a step above. Not to mention, my favorite style. This really tasted like a Little Debbie Swiss Cake Roll and finished like a tootsie roll with the most beautiful maple sugar candy finish. Not overly sweet and very natural tasting. No booziness, all goodness. Probably in the Top 5 beers I've ever had. While I do normally dock a point on appearance for a beer having no head, I can't justify that being the reason I keep this from a 5.

Pours black with a tan head. Aroma has notes of roasted malt, maple syrup, chocolate, caramel, coconut and alcohol. Taste is heavy sweet and light to medium bitter with a long very sweet maple syrup, chocolate, caramel and coconut finish. Body is full, texture is oily to sticky, carbonation is soft.

On tap at the Siren Tap Yard. Pours black with light head. Big aromas of maple syrup, caramel, chocolate, and soft sweet roasted malts. Flavors follow same but thick, sweet and rich, with additional dark caramel, fudge and graham cracker. Sticky. Can’t get much better for a desert beer. I’ll take a couple of cases please.

Bottle shared. Pours pitch black with small dense dark brown head. Aromas of sweet maple, vanilla icecream, light coconut, sweet chocolate, fudge. Taste is sweet, fudge, vanilla, chocolate, light heat, light toasted coconut, sweet maple, roasty bitterness in the back. Tastes close to Noa. Subtle difference. Still good though.
