375ml bottle. Opaque, darkest brown, quasi black colour with small, creamy, diminishing, minimally lacing, dark beige to tan head. Roasty and sweet-ish, chocolately, dark malty as well as dark caramel malty and minimally spicy aroma, notes of toffee, coffee, dark caramel, dark chocolate, cold brew, some maple syrup, a touch of liquorice root; Bourbon overtones. Taste is sweet-ish, minimally sugary, dark malty and caramel malty, minimally alcoholic, notes of coffee, sugared coffee, toffee, dark chocolate, coffee liqueur, a touch o fmaple syrup, Bourbon overtones; minimally warming, alcoholic finish.
Dissolved sugar enriched, minimally viscous texture, smooth, soft and minimally cloying palate, medium, scattered, soft carbonation.
Sweet but still balanced, syrupy, intense, condensed - great sipper with dangerous drinkability due to most easily accessible flavours.

Brown, no head, sticky mapley, bourbony aroma. Yeah, maple, big vanilla sugar vibes, rich roast, a splash of alcohol in the finish. Drinks way too easy.
