Boozy and sweet, leaning on maple and caramel flavors primarily. It's balanced out by a rather dry finish to help it from becoming a dessert-like beer

Lots of maple & cinnamon sweetness up front, with a bit of a dry finish. Great after dinner dessert beer.

Very smooth but packs a punch. Somewhat sweet with a hint of bourbon. Impressive

Big, bold and boozy. Massive malt, caramel, maple, oak, bourbon and very woody finish. Even with the maple and huge malt, the beer is quite dry. Nice one.

It's hot & malty with a sweetness that is about my limit. Drinks like a sandwich. Nicely hopped though so that helps balance it out. The oak barrel is a great aroma, & and the maple syrup is a back seat to most else.

If a nectar were a beer, this would be it. Original in that the peculiar sweetness does not override the “beerness” but balances terrifically. Strongly recommended as something entirely unique.

Noticable maple with a nice, tight little bite at the end. I like this more than I should.

Very smooth. Sweet maltiness gives way to a pleasant oak from the barrel age. Slight alcohol burn/bitterness in the finish. Definitely a sipper.

It’s obviously sweet, but it had a finish that was a little bitter for me. Still pretty good though.

I’m not sure about this one. All the flavors you’d expect are there but I’m not sure they all go together. Amster rating: “this may sound a bit weird but it’s too sweet”

Not a fan. Maybe better when warmer but cold out of bottle isn't great style for me. Hits my tastes super bitter then finishes overly sweet. I get the contrast, just not my Thang.

A fan. Peak at room temperature. Becomes a slow sipping candy treat. Caramels even hints of dried fruit . Hoppy and fragrant . Wine . Pairs well with Pappy

Been a long time since I’ve had this. Need to process it some more before I can rate it. Might need to age it for a while.

Lots going on here, a little maple syrup and bourbon, but mostly caramel and butterscotch with a fruity nose. Very nice.
