| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 21, 2008 Bottle. Red brown with a small head. Aromas are sweet malts with fudge. Some hints of honeyed sweetness with smoky notes. Flavours are sweet weetabix malts with syrup and caramel. A decent malty brew. brewski519 (428), Morrisville, North Carolina, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 14, 2008 Like another poster stated, I am surprised by the lower than expected ratings of this beer. Had this for the first time at Beerfest in Raleigh NC and it is now available in bottles in the area - pours a nice dark brown with a thick head. Nice maple, molasses and malt aroma - sweet tasting with a brown sugar, molasses and maple flavoring that did not overwhelm - done just right. This is a nice winter drinking beer and I really enjoy this one. Collint (464), Sylva, North Carolina, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Dec 12, 2008 Wow...surprised at the ranking here. Poured a deep brown with a good head. The beer has a caramelly aroma and the flavor is very clean with hints of maple and caramel. There is a base here of a solid brown ale with just enough sweetness to make it interesting but not over the top. I really enjoyed this one. barleynhops (82), Alpharetta, Georgia, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Dec 10, 2008 Draught: Deep chocoalte in color with a thin tan head. Distinct smell with obvious maple hints. Tastes of sweet maple with roasted malts. Not too bad, but would appreciate a more bitter taste with alcohol hints. JohnnyOS (646), Golden, Wisconsin, USA

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 29, 2008 decent head with mild maple aroma. taste is nutty maltiness with a bit of the maple flavor in the background. washes cleanly over the palette with a little hoppiness. its ok, not a repeat drinker.
