| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Dec 20, 2008 Alcohol was well hidden, but that was about the only memorable thing about it. Very sweet, but no flavors that jump out. Just blah. brewski519 (424), Morrisville, North Carolina, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 19, 2008 Pours a dark mahogany with a fast disappearing tan head. Nutty, caramel, maple aroma. Tastes a much stronger version of its little brother, Maple Nut Brown ale. Definitely picked up the alcohol taste more so in this version. Still pretty tasty but would not drink more than about 1 or 2 of these in one sitting due to the sweetness and the alcohol.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 11, 2008 Bottle shared with Hogtown Harry, Blankboy, GregClow, and Garthicus, courtesy of Harry - who mentioned he had this bottle for a while. Mild malt aroma. Dark brown small white head. Huge alcohol taste, lots of nutty malt. Probably a little musty with the age but that alcohol sure did not fade. Pretty decent.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 9, 2008 Dark brown pour with reddish highlights and a thin ring of light tan head. Aroma is sugary sweet cocoa, and a twinge of alcohol. Flavor is very similar to their cocoa porter, but with a much higher abv. Almost boozy. Very nutty flavor as it warms. I’d drink it again. garthicus (1309), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
