Draught. Body is dark orange-brown. Aroma is moderately malty (cookie, caramel, molasses), with notes of maple syrup, date, toffee, clove, vanilla, and allspice. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Light to medium body, watery texture, soft carbonation, lightly alcoholic. The body is quite thin/watery, but otherwise this is quite a special brew...they were obviously going after the big mapley barleywines like Sam Adams Triple Bock. The alcohol is very well-hidden and the aroma is very enticing.
