Over 50 gallons of Vermont maple syrup give this barleywine a huge maple nose but the heirloom English malt shines through cutting the sweetness. In 4 words or less: Boozy Pancakes

Poured from a fresh growler.
A - Hazy brown raisin colored pour with no lacing and no carbonation.
S - Bread crust, dark fruit, maple, slight breadiness.
T - Bread crust, maple, some alcohol warming on the way down, light maple flavor, some spice, and alcohol on the back end.
M - Big medium body.
O - Deceptive with a well hidden ABV. Doesn't taste like Barley, mellow like an English Strong Ale instead. Toffee flavor is at a minimum... glad to have tried but wouldn't try again.
