10 November 2023. At Billie's Craft Beer Fest. Thanks to tderoeck for sharing today's beers - cheers to so many more!

Vintage 2023. Jet black, beige head. Lots and lots and lots of maple syrup, maple syrup on pancake, almond, praliné, flavoured cappuccino, tobacco, hazelnut. Intense sweet maple syrup, cookies, pancake, chocolate sauce & nuts. Extremely long finish of peppery hops, bitter coffee, maple, maple, etc. Potent whisky & coffee liqueur alcohol warmth. Full body, oily/viscous texture, soft carbonation. An amazing surprise to find this at the festival. Savoured until the last drop. Now there's only hoping to encounter it again sometime...
