NachlamSie (1353), Tennessee, USA Dec 3, 2007 2 day old growler. Pours a deep red/black with a pretty good tan head. The aroma is maple up front with baking chocolate, nut shells, and thin coffee. Carbonation is fairly active and the mouthfeel is a bit thin, but that helps make the maple flavor not seem so syrupy. Maple is up front again on the tastebuds, but it is not overkill. In the mix I get nutshells, bitter chocolate, and a sweeter, chewy nut character as well. This is nothing exciting, but it is drinkable. I’m glad the maple flavor was not too overdone.
