12 ounce bottle from Brennan's Cellars, 5/11/19. Maple AND brandy? YES PLEASE! Hazy golden amber, thin fizzy tan head, fair retention. Aroma of oak, brandy, maple, stone fruit, caramel. Taste is caramel, maple, vanilla, oak, raisin, whiskey, apple-like fruit. Medium bodied, booze well hidden. Nice beer.

Bottle shared by Bob, thanks! Pours a hazy deep amber with a tan head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has some sweet grains with a bit of bourbon and a touch of earthy fruits underlying. Flavor has a good amount of sweet grains with a bit of bourbon, booze and a bit of dark fruits.

750ml c/o Ben S. Kind of acrid brutal aroma. The taste however, is pretty nice. Straight up boozy barrel tones. Smooth maple tones. I’ve always enjoyed Spikes, so this is an interesting variation that I enjoy as well. Certainly a little hot, leaves some heat in the finish. An interesting beer for sure.
