Tobacco had really come out to play, maple and bourbon is still strong, such well concealed booze, I can’t imagine this will improve past this point so but I’ll never know for sure as this is my last bottle…..

Chris Van Vlack

LCI--big boozy bourbon, slight maple sweetness

steven p

Bourbon is much stronger now, after 5 years. Maple sweetness is much less now. Much more balanced now. Head still ok.

Bryan M

Aging for 6 years and wow is it smooth! Slight sweetness from the maple bourbon barrels and notes of bourbon sweetness in the finish. Very nice old ale.

Still excellent

Chris Tripolino

Sweet, warming, rich, and good. Cedar, maple, vanilla notes. So well-balanced

Nate Caister

Few years on it did it some favors.

Chris

Pepper Jenkins

Always knew this would be a snow beer but damn! From 2018 and will still knock you down! Super bourbon smell and flavor, boozy, maple like sweetness. Man, KC or Buffalo could use one of these bad boys to warm up for wild card weekend!

Basement clean out

Steven

This is a real kicker... doesn't seem to have aged at all... feels like it could age forever... rustic, funky and complex. Not for everyone but I can dig it.

A great PICK, still delicious in year 5 #GoBlue

Molasses, sweet but not too sweet. Caramel, rum, barrels. Yummy.

Fresh out of the cellar! Might have got to this one a bit late but still very tasty.

Slight sweetness with a light and complex maple flavor. Very nice malty finish.
