bottle - Pours dark amber with a medium sized, lingering head. It has a caramel malt aroma. The flavor is sweet caramel malt and some mild hops. Itโs light on the hops for the style and a little on the thin side. Not bad though and it looks nice.

Aroma of nuts, bread, and caramel. Amber color with a white head that quickly flattened. Thin to moderate body. Slightly fizzy. Flavor is sort of nutty with a carmel sweetness. The bitter is arguably enough, but the finish seems malty more than bitter. Itโs more of an amber than a pale.

Maple syrup aroma. Dark tea color, with a creamy tan head. Tastes of roasted chestnuts and sweet syrup. Good quality hops in the finish. Detractingly thin mouthfeel, not bitter at all. More like a brown ale, IMO.

Bottle. Pours a dark coppery brown with a nice off white frothy head that sits about a half inch high. Aromas are of sweet malt and apple juice, slightly fruity hops, and a touch of honey. Flavor is caramel apple with a slightly bitter hops finish. Comes off as a little watery and the malt and hops presence just doesnโt come through stongly.
