With malty and hoppy notes alongside a subtle hint of maple syrup, Maple Moon is a superbly balanced premium bitter.
This full-bodied copper coloured ale is brewed with choice ale amber malts, cascade hops and Canadian maple syrup. The result is a fruity, slightly sweet beer with a balanced bitterness and firm base of maltiness.
A staple in the Holt’s bottled range, Maple Moon is a serial award winner on the international stage.

Bottle from Morrisons. Amber coloured with a minimal head. Sweet malt and red fruit aroma. Flavour had tonnes of caramel to the point of being cloying. What finish there was was reminiscent of boiled sweets. Another not so pleasant pasteurised beer.

[i] Bottle from dad picked up at Morrisons[/i] Mid amber pour, sweetness and malt are the key notes on the nose. Tasted really decent if a little sweet, good malty full bodied little number, not too much bitterness and hops whilst there were lacking slightly I felt, still I rather enjoyed this.

Bottle. Brown beer with a light head. The aroma is lightly toffee and hopped and the flavour is dry with a large toffee aspect. Overall a reasonable roasted and dry beer.

500 ml bottle - apparently "Silver Medal Winner, Munich 2005, Brewing Industry International Awards". golden with a white head, moderate carbonation; jammy sweet smell due to pasteurisation. Tart, almost eye-watering, flavour, then apple sweetness and an acidic enamel-stripping finish. Leaves the mouth feeling sticky - but no hint of maple anywhere.

500ml bottle, Booths. Pale chestnut colour with thin beige head. Faint sherberty hop aroma, some candy sugar and tehn sherberty hop finish. Cascade hops are really quite nice. Grapefruity. Oh dear, the pasteurisation neuters the malt. Hops are good though.
