Notes:

Beautiful dark brown with a creamy off white froth. Notes of vanilla, nuts, maple, caramel, earthy herbal spicy hops, light leather, bourbon and oak. Great taste, a real smooth culmination of all aromas and a brilliant balance of bitter and sweet. The mouthfeel is rich and creamy, mid carbonation helps. A nutty, maple sweetness and spicy bitterness lingers on. No hint of booziness is present. A fantastic brew.
