A collaboration with our forever friend Cam from The Eighth State Brewing Company in Greenville, South Carolina. This massive stout first rested in house-aged maple syrup barrels for 10 months before being racked into a New Riff barrel and a Blanton’s barrel for a double barrel treatment of 14 more months. These two barrels were blended together without any adjuncts; just beer through time with patience.

Another beautiful 750ML Forager bottle. I should make a window out of these buggers. Split with my wife.

Black with a sweet bourbon nose. Nothing to dislike here.

Syncopation reminds me of tappin’ maple trees on the back forty & sleeping in that drafty old cabin on cold fall nights. Beautiful malts give this depth, heft, & a sap-licking sweetness, which is accented by the maple kick. Barrels show with surprising subtleness, a kick in the back of the throat & long, slow finish of bourbon. Gentle bits of black licorice finish a simple book. Full. Thick. I could’ve taken this solo. Easy.

Yup. After the disappointment of the Forager Ant Beer this has restored my faith in God & the American Way. Excellent beer.
