Our most extravagant beer meets the most extravagant breakfast in this year’s Caribbean Chocolate Cake twist. We’ve adjusted the base here a little to allow the pancake element to come through. We’re layering maple notes from syrup to wood, maximising depth of flavour. A small amount of smoked malt, working in tandem with bourbon maple staves and the sweet, sticky undertone adds a delicate aroma akin to the impact you’d get from perfectly prepared streaky bacon. A generous helping of cacao and a dusting of spices, in part from the expressive Amburana wood, completes this liquid guilty pleasure.

Can from Gedeelde Vreugde. Cloudy black, stable, foamy, beige head. Aroma of fondant, vanilla, smoking wood, maple syrup, prune, dried fig, coffee bean, clove, cinnamon. Taste has sweet prune, date and raisin in a malty body of maple & toffee, quite chocolatey too; bit smoky over a bitter base of coffee, wood & fondant. Herbal hoppy finish, slightly peppery, spicy notes of tonka & cinnamon lingering over chocolate and umami soy, softly warming brandy-like alcohol. Full body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Adequately balanced with a whole lot of things going on. Great!

Can courtesy of Geraint and Helen, cheers! This was shared with the Ratebeer München group Friday 26th November 2021. Pours black with a filmy head. The nose is nice and woody, some maple syrup and softness, chocolate and I get the pancake suggestion good.

Can. Black color with beige head. Aroma is boozy, mild spices, chocolate cake indeed, don't get much maple. Taste is the same. Full-bodied mouthfeel with medium carbonation. Good!
