16 oz. can, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma has huge bourbon barrel character upfront, followed by maple, vanilla beans, and dark sugar. Flavour is intense, with tons of maple syrup, brown sugar, and a touch of bourbon. Tons of maple and dark sugars. The barrel is more detectable on the nose than the flavour. It's not the most complex or elegant impie stouts, but it works well-enough.

Capped 500 from Total Wine in Vacaville, CA. Pours bright gold with a transient slight white head. Aroma suggests pedio. Med body. It's sour and tart. Definitely some pedio. Some floral hop perhaps. Citrus is likely. A bit astringent. With time buckwheat can be perceived. Wish I could perceive Brett.
