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.

It is what it is. Awesome flavor profile. Waaaaay to over powering for me. But A+ for the effort. The alcohol will crush your soul. Something is out of balance, but it's worth trying.

Looking forward to this one. Now I’m looking forward to finishing this glass. Aroma 9.2, body 6.7, mouthfeel 6.4, taste 6.9? I wanna love it, way too much cinnamon and no where near enough vanilla and bourbon barrel. Better as it warms up to cellar temps.

Yikes. That upfront flavor is sharp and unappealing. Like straight clove, but the linger is really nice lol you just gotta take unpleasant flavor for 4-5 seconds and that linger is actually really good haha.

Too much cinnamon. Flavorings don’t work as well with this as with their stouts
