What Our Editors Thought
"Deep chocolate praline nose. More rich and rugged than soft and sweet. On the sip, subtle sweetness highlights substantive nuttiness and bold chocolate. Intensely flavorful and rich without relying on sweetness as a crutch."
What Our Panel Thought
"Well-integrated maple syrup and pecan aromas with lingering barrel. Rich, dark roast flavor with pecans, chocolate, coffee, subdued bourbon, and maple sweetness that doesn’t cloy. Full body, somewhat oily. Sweet finish."
What the Brewers Say
"Maple pecan variant of Ratio's bourbon barrel–aged Genius Wizard."
