Can pour at the DCBeer December 2025 share. Poured a clear copper orange color with a small white head. Aroma was sweet malts, a touch of maple syrup. Sweet, with some pleasant earthy notes. Nice.

Blik gedeeld door Keukeman, thuis geprobeerd met Roelzie. Het is een troebel amberkleurig bier met een medium beige schuim. Het heeft een aroma van ahornsiroop. De smaak is vol fruitig, armhorn siroop en hop.

16 oz. can. Aroma is earthy with mild maple. Flavor follows with the addition of a mild smoke and almost a nutty hint. Body and texture are correct. It’s pretty good.

Brown with orange highlights and a small beige head that left decent lacing. Toasty and woody with faint maple, a bit of fruit and some astringency. Medium finish and body.

16 ounce can. Bright amber red color. Large, frothy tan head. Toasted malt aroma hints at maple and molasses. Rich, toasted malt flavor has notes of caramel, maple and root tonic. Subtle notes of molasses and earthy leaves. Sticky mouthfeel leads to a cloying, malty finish.

Can from my Advent Box day 2 Dark amber in color with decent clarity and a thin bubbly off white head that slowly recedes. Maple nose and flavor with a bready toasty caramel maltiness underneath. Light earth to balance. A hint on the sweet side but tasty
