On tap at Coastal Mass, pours jet black with a small light brown head. Aroma has plenty of bourbon, subdued maple syrup, and plenty of sugars in general. Flavour is rich and very sweet, with intense maple syrup, subdued bourbon barrels, and plenty of sugars. Not very refined. The barrels are barely noticeable. The syrup is dominant. There’s not a huge malt depth. It’s okay.

Pours mahogany tinged cola into a tulip. Mocha head with little retention recedes to hug rim. Sweet maple and bourbon aromas. Sharp with sweet dark chocolate, sweet maple and sweet bourbon upfront turning dry in the heavily oaked earthy burnt raisin bread finish.

32oz growler purchased same day black with a thin tan head. Aroma is maple, roasted grains, mild oak. Taste follows with a nice balance, maple is not artificial nor does it dominate, hint of oak, do not get the bourbon from the description. Nicely crafted.

32 oz. growler shared by Chalumeaux. Maple is not overdone. Subtle oak character. Body and texture are nice. Nice introduction to a new nano brewery.
