Clean, copper-amber colour with a fizzy, frothy beige head, light retention, heavy carbonation, but not much lacing left. It almost looks like a watered-down cola. Darker, roasted malt aromas with some dark fruits, nuttiness and a touch of maple, caramel malts. The mouthfeel is not as sticky as expected, nor too thick, syrupy. Decent hoppiness cuts the sweetness, with some butterscotch notes, hints of coffee and burnt bread. The maple syrup or sap is subtle, but works well. An easy-drinking, maple Scotch ale that is no more.
