What Our Editors Thought
“Curious aroma with decaying wood, maple syrup, and light floral notes. Big and earthy in the sip, with touches of amaretto over single-origin chocolate. Captivating.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Smells like orange creamsicle, saltwater taffy, mint, almond, wet earth, and definitely maple. A maple-forward candy sweetness along with some herbal and cola hints. A puzzle of a flavor!”
What the Brewers Say
“Bourbon barrel–aged imperial stout conditioned on candy cap mushrooms, vanilla beans, nutmeg.”
