A rich, sweet stout with classic malt characteristics with a bold, unique twist. This beer tastes like you crammed a fat stack of blueberry pancakes into a pint glass and smothered it with maple syrup. Channel your inner lumberjack, because it’s in for a real treat.

Quite sweet. It’s got the maple syrup, it’s got the blueberry. It’s nice, but a bit artificial tasting. And perhaps a bit much for a whole can. Only a touch of stout characteristics lingering in the background. I kind of like it, but at the same time it’s pretty weird.

Can. Pours opaque dark brown with a small foamy beige head, coffee aroma, medium carbonation, mildly sweet mocha taste with berry flavor, smooth somewhat thick body, long mocha finish. Very smooth and tasty.

473ml can from B&M Bargains. Near black in colour, with a slight, beige, head. Plenty of sweet dark berries, with some added maple syrup character in the background. There was also some tastiness and a vanilla oak edge, before a warming, sweet, finish. Fine.

440ml can from Home Bargains, Aylesbury, Bucks. A black coloured pour with a very thin beige head on top. Sweet blueberry, maple, chocolate, aroma and taste. Actually not so sweet with a slight tartness. Pleasant well balanced stout.

[44cl can from Home Bargains, Bracknell.] A glossy black pour with a then beige head; strong maple syrup aroma - slightly smokey; somewhat milky consistency with lots of sweetness from the maple syrup balanced by a tart fruitiness from the blueberries and perhaps black cherries and damsons, with some licorice and leather thrown in for good measure; then a dry, sour, fruity finish with lingering maple. A complex sipping beer.

Can from Home Bargains, Salford. Very dark with very little head. Its blueberry notes are very strong in its aroma and aftertaste, but it's also sweet tasting so the maple influence is not lost. It's mildly sticky textured too.

483ml can from Home Bargains - Deep murky brown body, thin top. Smoky nose to start, maple comes through, berry at the back. Taste gives the maple syrup and blueberry pancake vibe, albeit a bit artificial. Quite nice to be fair.

Can shared by Erik. Rather thin body, med-high carbonation. Fully malty, with moderate coffeeish sourness, light astringency. Med-light bitterness and sweetness. The blueberry and maple are med-light, while coffee is intense, moderate chocolate, light toffee. Drinkable, good, but not great.
