Can at home watching US take it home vs Canada in 4 nations hockey, made it tastes so much sweeter. And maple syrup just seeems appropriate. Dark pour almost black and beige head nose is cocoa and maple. Tatses of ash, smoke, maple syrup (in one of more pleasant ways in beer I’ve had) chocolate, and bread. Semi sweet and smoky finish

Spurs on a dark descent towards a relegation battle. 5pts out of 27. Another blah performance today. Sleepwalking to where Villa were eight years ago, and where Everton have been the last 4/5 years.
Beer is nice at least. Smoky, maple syrup.

Two cans from Churchkey back at the hotel. Dark brown on oily black pour, fleeting cookie dough head. Sweet maple smoke & thoughts of bourbon on the nose. Taste is vanilla & bittersweet cocoa upfront with a bittersharp char, mellow earthy bite, slight cola, slighter pith, mild maple candy on the tail. Crispy, acidic, thin, just a little warming. Great.

Draught @ Brouwerij Lane (5/10/23). Dark brown with red highlights against the light, spongy tan head, smokey mocha aroma, adequate carbonation, medium bitter mocha-milk chocolate taste with smokey flavor, thin smooth body, long chocolatey finish. Very intense and satisfying taste.

16iz can from Tavour. Near black pour, thin, tight beige head. Aroma is roasty, smoky, maple. Taste leads with the roasty bitterness, coffee, ashy and light sweet maple. Light lingering bitterness.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear and very dark brown with a huge foamy tan head that did some lacing. Aroma is very smoky. Hint of maple syrup. Med plus body. Flavor is smoky, dark malt and maple syrup notes. Earthy in a way. Ash too. Nice change of pace. :)
