Could never drink it.. it's so heavy in the alc that it's hard to swallow but wow, spot on with the French toast. I mean, exactly spot on with the flavor.

French toast in a bottle! It's a bit much, to be honest, especially the first sip. And definitely seems sweeter than it needs to be. Still, it's fun and definitely evokes the name.

this smells like when you’ve had some meat or something in the fridge too long and other stuff starts to smell like it. the vanilla/cinnamon/maple on the palate is accompanied by a bitter finish. maybe we have to wait on this one.

Aroma is rich with cinnamon, vanilla, and maple. Palate is similar. The body is medium plus and velvety smooth. Definitely a sipper. Abv is pretty well hidden.

Good but too much vanilla/maple action. Just overpowering and missing the scotch bite in the original. Great aroma however.

Can a beer be to sweet. This might be the closest to syrup a beer has been. Really sweet and really strong.

Very reminiscent of a barleywine in flavor balance. The alcohol is very noticeable, doesn't burn, but it is clearly there. The maple is stron on the nose and front end but quickly fades away.
