Pint can pours with a nice deep dark colored body that supports a thin ring of tan bubbles. The aroma offers up an array of inviting notes like spicy maple, chocolate, vanilla like marshmallow, nutty oily coffee as well as a bit of dark roasted malts and a faint sense of booze. The taste delivers smooth sweetened nutty coffee goodness as well as a bit of chocolate, spicy maple and a bit of molasses. These varied flavors slowly circle each other and quickly create a pleasing balance of richness, balance and depth. Damn nice sipper.

Can at Weathered 2022. Near black with small beige head. Coffee and marshmallow with a bit of maple syrup. Good balance, sweet and tasty.

1 pint can. Pours black with moderate tan head. Aromas of maple syrup, brown sugar, dark caramel, and light roasted malts. Flavors of maple syrup, chocolate macaroon, sweet coffee, oily roasted malts. Very sweet but with a nutty bitterness maybe from the coffee. Alcohol becomes more prominent in the finish.

Dark brown, no head and it looks thick. The aroma is big, especially maple syrup and coffee. Sticky sugars all over the place and maple galore. Rich dark roast in behind that, it’s powerful but there’s just so much sugar in this.

16oz can thanks to Toby. Pours black with a small tan head, light lacing. Almonds, maple syrup, caramel, vanilla, chocolate and sweet malts. Very good, it's pretty sweet though. But, Wow.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Pitch black colour, pours viscously, small head, almost none. Deep aroma nuts, caramelized pecans, maple glaze. It's full bodied, thick, considerably sweet, but the sweetness is somehow balanced by the coffee notes; the alcohol instead is barely noticeable; loaded with pecans, nuts, green nuts, dark caramel, burnt sugar, maple syrup; rich till the finish.
Excellent.

On tap at Great Notion - Ballard, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is a maple syrup bomb, like Double Stack, with intense maple syrup, subdued coffee further back. Flavour is more coffee-dominated on the nose, with intense coffee, followed by loads of maple syrup. No real roast other than from the coffee. Delicious sticky dessert. Is this beer? Whatever, it's tasty.

Taster shared with Matt and Andrew at Ballard's location. Appearance: almost black with a tan head. Aroma: maple syrup with some fruity notes and chocolate. Taste: still tons of maple, but also pleasant fruity character. Very sweet and thick. Overall: pretty good, a bit overwhelming, though.

On tap at the brewery pours out black topped with a tan head. Nose is big sweet maple syrup roast malts chocolate coffee. Taste is more of the nice sweet chocolate big heavy maple syrup roast coffee.
