southern tier french toast S L 3 F 1T 2O2 Bottle. Clear light brown tint on pale. Nose is volatile sweet cinnamon and something. First taste is big heavy pastry beer; cloying to say the least. Syrupy sweet, almost can't handle it. I better sip this for a while, Whew. Yea. its a boozy mess; its almost 9% and it aint letten yah forget it. Warming sensations all over as I approach the middle. Because of the heavy duty flavor impact, I didn't notice hardly any carbonation, but its there, just barely; otherwise its just a big mouth coating flat sweet ass mishmash of confusion. Nutmeg and vanilla start to stick their hairy behind in yer face as you approach the bottom of the bottle. Not sure how I made it this far. This is an example of how a brewer tries to sell more beers by making anything into a so called beer. This is almost as bad as their other convoluted pastry beers like sugar cookie er sumthin. OK for a tick but its one bad ass dilemma of a quandary. Blah. Very few pastry beers have piqued my interest and this is not one of them. Forget bout RB calling this a strong ale, it is a pastry.

Bottle, from Whole Foods, Manhattan. Pours clear copper-brown with a small frothy beige head that flops fast, cinnamon-caramel aroma, adequate carbonation, mildly sweet toasted bread-cinnamon taste, thin body, long finish. Tastes genuinely like french toast with maple syrup on top.

Brown with orange highlights and a large foamy beige head. Strong maple syrup and cinnamon sugar, toasty malt and a bit of astringency. Long finish. Moderately full bodied.

Pours clear deep mahogany into a tulip. Tan head with excellent retention recedes leaving trailing sheets. Maple, vanilla and cinnamon aromas. Thick with hot syrup and vanilla upfront turning slick in the warm, lasting vanilla and cinnamon stick finish. Super sweet, but a nice dessert beer.

12oz bottle. Over the top sweetness, but Southern Tier has always had that. Maple dominated, sugary brown sugar backdrop. The nutmeg and vanilla really start to show after a few sips, and it really nails the flavor of French Toast in that bright candy artificial way. OK enough to sample, but hollow stylistically, pastry gimmicky stuff.

12 ounce bottle. Number one with a bullet. This is my 50th Southern Tier rating! Deep copper brown color. Frothy tan head. Aroma is redolent of maple syrup, cinnamon and nutmeg. Sweet toasted malt flavor upfront. Notes of caramel, maple, cinnamon and nutmeg. Some booziness, as well. Interesting.
