Well I did it. I waited to long and didn’t enjoy this beer at its best. Founders Brewery frowns on people who age their beers. In this case I agree.

A little boozy. Roasty and slightly bitter. Not overly thick but full tasting. Malt and a hint of some berry.

[bottled 10-02-2018] [from the cellar]Another forgotten bottle past it's prime. Surprisingly nice head, almost nothing on the nose (cocoa and alcohol). Plenty of boozy heat, some chocolate, a vanilla-ish something and.... Discovered another bottle, too😑

[bottled 10-02-2018] [from the cellar]Last of the CBS 750's, thankfully. This bottle was less offensive than the last. Very chocolatey, far less cardboardy, an odd alcohol flavor, very little depth or other notes. CBS was best consumed in that 12mo window

I'm going to say the 5+ years sitting in a bottle were starting to negatively impact the taste. Maybe best to only age 3 years. Weird flavors happening.

It’s not kept very well. Good and boozy, but I’m getting train station coffee and no maple.

(3 yrs) aging does not become it well. The usual great balance is upset and sweetness has become too dominant. Quite much so.

This 5-year-old bottle pours like it's a virgin. Nice tight, beige head that lingers for quite a while. The flavor however has oxidized a bit w/ a mild cardboard taste. There is some sweetness but it's indistinguishable from maple syrup.
