This Imperial Brown Ale was brewed with crisp apples, sweet maple syrup, and a dash of cinnamon. Pair it with pie at home or sip it under some sunshine!

16oz can. No dating found.
Ruby brown colored body. One finger of beige colored head. Leaves some partial walls of lacing.
Aroma is big with maple syrup and cinnamon, along with some apple.
Taste is a jarring mix of apple cinnamon, which is greatly sweetened by the maple syrup. The same mix of flavors continues into the aftertaste.
Mouth feel is thick. There appears to be carbonation but the texture hides much expression.
Interesting brewing exercise to top the toasted malt flavor with fruit, spice, and sugar. Higher ABV% is well hidden. The initial impression is less enjoyable than the lingering memory.

Pours a hazy dark copper /brown color with a thin tan head As advertised smell is apples,maple syrup and cinnamon . Taste follows nose all three taste combine together and are present nothing overpowers. Mouth feel is sweet with the maple syrup its offset with fruit and spice and malt , It is overly sweet in MF and a tough one to finish (16oz) )but very tasty.
