Commercial Description:
This full, smooth wheat ale is warming and delicious. It’s mildly hopped to let the distinct flavor and aroma of real VT maple syrup take the lead. The maple sweetness and body that blankets this velvety amber beer showcases one of New Englands most beloved traditions. Brewed with wheat malt, pale malt and caramel malt. The pure maple syrup used in this beer came from two syrup makers in the Green Mountain State. The Baker Family in East Dummerston has been boiling maple sugar since the 1950s. Dave Gavett also provided syrup from his Scrag Mountain Sugar House in Waitsfield. John’s recipe, along with top quality syrup from these two Vermont maple sugar operations, resulted in a crisp wheat ale that is warming and delicious. It is mildly hopped to profile the distinct aroma and flavor of real Vermont Maple Syrup. Hopped with Willamette. Brewed by John Baker

Pours caramel brown with a thin white head. Smells of maple, sweet wheat, earthy. Tastes earthy and sweet with a wheat finish. Good for what it is.

Deep amber beer with a thick white head. Aroma is god-awful. Slightly rancid with cooked corn, wheat and sweet sticky spoiled oranges. Cloying sugary sweetness. I don’t get any maple, but I do get about another 21 oz of shit I can’t drink. It’s been awhile since I dumped something, but I couldn’t think of a crappier beer to give the dishonour to.

Bomber from the Sam’s in Downer’s Grove, Illinois: This poured a clear amber body with a creamy egg-shell head. No lace. It had the aroma of a caramel apple drizzled with maple syrup and dipped in soft nuts. That was the flavor, too, except that the maple disappeared until near the end. Pretty dull, over all.

Bomber. Session 26. Deep copper pour with chaotic off-white head. Nose is malt and hopcitrus, with a caramel malty flavor backup by hops, brown sugar, and mild maple flavors. Medium, not terribly complex palate. Enjoyable.

Bottle. Pours an amber body with a tan head. Sweet caramel and candy like apple qualities, very sweet, cotton candy. Feeling a bit cold and clammy I’ll be right back I have to go check my blood sugar.

Tap at the brewery. Pours a clear woody light copper with a medium lasting head. Aroma is slightly sweet with maple hints, caramel malts and doughy almost crackery wheat malts. Flavor is a bi tthin but has a slight sugary honey and maple sweetness, and a hint of toffee, earth and herbal hops. Tangy and dry finish.
