This quintessential English-style Old Ale is a masterpiece, with each sip being a delicious new experience. With an abundance of select maple syrup added, and then aging on gourmet coffee beans, Den Haag awakens to an even more complex, interesting and satisfying flavor profile. Still aged in rare, sought after Bourbon barrels, and this time with ex-Bourbon Maple Syrup barrels(!),

250ml can. Darkest brown colour with weak ruby shimmer and minimally late awakening, small, frothy to creamy, fading, beige head. Intense, dark malty, caramel malty, alcoholic, slightly woody and minimally fruity and spicy aroma, notes of caramel, Bourbon, some maple syrup, pancake, whiffs of blueberry, plum and cherry, brandy overtones. Taste is sweet-ish and roasty, dark malty, slightly caramel malty, minimally fruity, notes of coffee, coffee liqueur, caramel, Bourbon, maple syrup, some treacle, a touch of vanilla cinnamon, wafer, pancake, a touch of dark honey, blueberry; minimally warming, alcoholic finish. Viscous texture, smooth and soft, cloying palate, fine, soft, creamy carbonation. Coffee is quasi completely hidden in the aroma, almost dominant in taste; nice, harmonious, homogeneous composition overall, naturally a tad boozy but venially so - very nice sipper.

Can, 25cl. An almost clear one, deep auburn, oily, flat and headless. The aroma has coffee, dark dried fruit and lots of maple syrup, with some alcohol and toffee. Cocoa notes. It's full-bodied and warming, smooth and silky on the palate, with a good bitterness to balance all the sweetness. Roasted malts, coffee, toffee, cocoa notes, resin hints and alcohol. Boozy. Lasting finish. A stramge one, delicious indeed, but it's difficult to describe all the good things happening, and it's a bit too sweet and warming. Nice to share. 231201

Korralikult vahtrasiirupine, magus, linnaseline, karamelline, kohv, alksi on, aga ABV kohta katab ikka väga hästi. Üllatavalt hea, hoppin frog ikka oskab.
