From a crowler, filled 10/26 .

Slightly hazy medium amber, with two fingers of tan head, that leaves a thick ring, and a small amount of lacing.

Smell is toffee, caramel, bready malt, and something sweet . That sweet element isn't exactly maple syrup-like. A bit like maple sap while it is being boiled-down - mostly wood , with some vague sweetness.

Taste is brown bread, slight toffee & caramel - less so than is typical - , a vague hint of something fruity, and a bit of wood. That wood flavor bounces between oak and maple. (Used to heat with wood, & the woodpile was in the dark, so I sampled feel,smell, & taste of the various woods, so I could ID in the dark, & get a good mix of what I wanted. ;) )

Feel is medium, slightly slick, with light, very,very fine carbonation.

Overall, pretty good, though I probably should have had it sooner, and might have been better. Get the occasional flashes of oxidation, mostly in aroma. The wood , both aroma & flavor, takes some getting used to, but after mental adjustment, I'm liking it. I'd get this again next year, if offered.
