Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown close to black color with a one and a half fingers of off-white foamy head which fell off at a nice pace to leave some light lace.
Aroma: roasted malts, coffee tones, earthy vibes, toasted nuts and a nice level maple syrup character
Flavor: starts roasty then meshes with some toasty character, subtle on the maple here but I like it that way, no aftertaste
Texture: medium bodied, between sessionable and being a sipper, smooth along the tongue, finishes with a good dose of roastiness, toasty nuts and light maple syrup
Overall: I say nice American stout with the maple syrup moreso as an afterthought.

Pours a thick oily near black from a can. Maple with unfortunate diacetyl note which is offputting. Flavor is more maple-y along with bitter roasted malt. Okay beer, just wish there was no diacetyl.

Can from Julios at home. Dark brown pour. Nose is roast malt and chocolate faint maple. Tastes of some maple syrup, chocolate, ash, coffee, faint fruit. Ok
