Very bourbon like with tons of maple, honey and oak flying around. Extremely thin body and no carbonation so you want this on the rocks. Doesn’t seem like it belongs here, but I’d try it again. bu11zeye (5608), Frisco, Texas, USA

Aroma of wood, maple, honey, bourbon, raisins, and caramel. Flavor of honey, wood, maple, grilled meat, and dark fruit. BrianK (190), Livingston, New Jersey, USA

Loads of maple flavor, not very hot at all which was surprising. Liquorlike. wetherel (1641), Encinitas, California, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 4, 2009 Bottle provided by Kevin, thanks:
Deep muddy brown with quite oily appearance. The aroma is smoky, earthy, cardboardy (as actually expected), marzipan, prune, walnuts, and a bit boozy. The taste is much of the same, smoky and maple syrup overtones with a nutty, dark fruit and boozy finish. The mouth feel is shockingly dry and chewy, nicely warming upon the chest. Very different and would have loved to try this in a fresher state. Lagunitasfan (452), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 23, 2009 Shared by BMan1113VR (what the hell kinda moniker is that!?!?!) at Stone Sour Fest. This dude and this bottle is the reason I like going to these kind of events. Seriously, some swamp-water looking barley-wine concoction in a craft tequila-looking bottle. Almost 20% ABV? At a sour fest? Thanks a lot. I really liked this. Like I said, swamp water hazy brown with a rich, sweet booze nose. Big nose. Smells like a 10 year old barley wine. Tons of flavors going on.
