On tap at the Quarrymans Hotel during Sydney Craft Beer Week.
Pours a dark brown colour, thin rim of head. Beige in colour, not much and not much lace. Nice colour, otherwise, cask beer.
Smells like maple and coffee, in equal measure. In the sense that both aromas complement and augment each other to the point of smellgasm. Spice of coffee and desserty syrupy sweetness of maple. Why are there not more things combining these two flavours? Get on that, people.
Taste is similar. Maple has a slight nutty character poking around the sides, with coffee roast and a bit of dry spice up the middle. Coffee doesn't taste as rounded as it smelled, and the maple isn't quite as sweet as it smelled either. On their own, I'd think the two flavours would really wow me, but next to the smell they're not that amazing. Nice, but more dry. It's strange that such a tasty palate should feel like a disappointment. On its own that palate would be a cracker, but the smell is miraculous.
Decent body, feels like a hand pump, though. English and untextured.
Seriously, cracking beer though. Your dessert and coffee in one go. A money saver at fancy restaurants. Get on it, people.
