Tap at the brewery - 2023 edition, 14.5% abv - black pour - nose of molasses, figs, coffee, maple - slick mouthfeel, full body - earthy maple sweetness that thankfully does not become cloying - chocolate, coffee, oak, red wine - finishes with moderate bitterness and light acidity - lingering background chocolate and alcohol warmth.

Capped 500 from Tavour. Pours dark brn/blk with a slight, transient dark tan head. Aroma is primarily maple. Full bodied. Flavor is maple, chocolate, bourbon, wood notes. Not at all dry. Heat fights off the nearly sticky sweetness. Who'd a thought this much sugar could work so well.
