[4535-20120621] Tap. Sweet maple roasted syrup aroma has a thick slice of caramel running underneath. Black body with a quick foamy brown head. Roasted caramel maple syrup flavour with a lingering boozy note. Full body. Hints at stronger liquor and quite a nice roast characteristic. (7/3/8/4/15) 3.7
Overheard: "I’m choking down the last bits of this."
(Flying Monkeys Tap-Takeover @ Volo, Toronto, ON)

2012-06-21. Black body with a small tan head. 3+ Very sweet with a lot of vanilla character, and a light perfumey floral touch. Whispers of maple. Dry not quite roasty touches in the finish are swamped by the vanilla character. 6+ Nice rich vanilla aroma, ephemeral notes of maple touches over muted dark malt below. Very smooth medium palate is very lightly carbonated. Shows potential but the strength of the vanilla is overpowering, which combined with the overall sweetness of the beer made this very hard to drink on a hot patio in the summer. OCB Week Tap Takeover at Volo, Toronto.
