Barrel Aged Cuppa - Cinnamon Dusted S'mores
Maplewood Brewery & Distillery

 

 

 

Look - great back thick tan head and sticky lacing
Smell - cinnamon chocolate and barrel
Taste - same as smell and rich
Feel - medium slightly fun with a lighter carb
Overall - nice well balanced cinnamon chocolate barrel. Lacking smores taste but still great

Had on tap. Brownish black pour with a brown ring. Chocolate, bourbon, and coffee meet marshmallow and vanilla with cinnamon thrown in on top in both smell and taste. Thought the marshmallow was a bit off in the taste with how sweet it was. Feel is warm and thinner for the series, cinnamon elevates a bit, very faint barrel character. Better than the almond variant but still a moderate disappointment

Adjuncts are there. It's quite sweet. But missing the barrel. Absolutely no hint of it cold or warm.

 

 

 

 

First up is the Cinnamon Dusted S’mores. I was definitely hyped the most on this one so I had to dive in. The BA Cuppa series is definitely thinned out from the original line which pulls it a bit from the full on dessert stout. This one was tangy and had a definitive dusting of cinnamon that is prevalent throughout the entire can. It reminded me of cinnamon graham crackers and I loved those growing up. The whiskey is calm and not a front runner flavor.
