We took a meticulously crafted blend of imperial stouts, aged it in apple brandy & maple barrels, and proceeded to get buck with it. Cinnamon sticks, toasted coconut, vanilla, and our house-roasted Black House blend coffee joined the party; the cinnamon is restrained, playing off the barrel character and sweetness of the other adjuncts in an absolutely delightful fashion. It makes for a wonderful convergence of fall flavors that will undoubtedly hold up through the holiday season, if you’re able to hold off cracking it for any length of time. We wouldn’t blame you if you can’t.

22oz (thx, Cam B., for the beer and Josh for bringing it from Seattle to the border) @ Ryan's shared with Alex, Phill, and Josh, trying to figure out the Okanagan trip because weather is preventing us from Golden Ears camping 😬.
Aroma: heavy, sweet, nice integrated mix of coffee and coconut, American oak.
Taste: along the same lines, nicely balanced coconut, chcocolate, vanilla, and American oak.
Overall: very nice.

Dark brown. Rich chocolate aroma, light cinnamon and some coconut, vanilla. Thick and sweet. Coconut, vanilla, little bit of cinnamon, maple, apple and lots of chocolate. Has all the decadence of a MT but complexity is more on the adjuncts than anything else.

Poured from 650mL bottle. Very dark brown with very minimal off white head. Mild cinnamon, coffee cake with feint coconut, the apple brandy and maple is but a hint, yet lends a gentle roundness. Each MT still available is something to savour. RIP.

Bottle at share. Near black pour with a thin beige foamy head. Aroma is rasty nd chocolate, like all the great MT stouts, adding pasrty notes of vanilla, cinnamon and cocnut. Appple picks up in the taste to really bring the coffe cake vibe home.
