Commercial Description:
A delicate amount of Maple syrup is added to each barrel of our award winning Maple Nut Brown Ale to impart roasted sweetness. This addition balances the nut flavor produced by Munich caramel and chocolate malts used in the brewhouse, producing a drinkable dark amber ale with a relatively low alcohol content. 2000 World Beer Cup Gold Medal & 1996 Great American Beer Festival Bronze Medal Winner

Unusual. Dark brown with a thick and creamy Guinness-like head. Flavor has very light maple. Flavor is sour; I wonder if it is infected? If it is, the infection is probably helping this beer. Sweet malt finish.

Horrible. No hint of maple at all. It is possible I got a bad bottle so I am not going to say much more until I try it at a later time. Butt Head was good. This was not.

The aroma has lightly toasted malt, nuts, and maple syrup with some coffee. The appearance is red brown with a tiny head. The flavor is bittersweet with only a little bit of maple syrup. The palate is thin. The aftertaste is like apricots. Overall it’s not bad but I was expecting a lot better.

Dark red pour. Essentially no head with this brew. Roasted nut aroma. Lacing is decent and somewhat makes up for the lack of head. Easy drinking beer, thin flavored. However, I do like the way the maple flavor fits with the style. If there was more flavor this would rate pretty well. As is, the score will suffer slightly.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a clear, handsome reddish mahogany with a small, off-white head. Malty, sweetish aroma with a hint of walnuts. Medium body, sweetish malty with notes of brown sugar and nuts. No real bitterness in the finish. 110606

What a great beer, although the maple flavor is subtle, its got a great toasty caramel malt flavor with a minor malt presance. Great with dessert
