What a fabulous beer! I drank this at the Michigan Beer Festival and both a friend and I enjoyed it big-time. Pours out to the usual, dark as night of the style with aromas of roasted malt and yes, light maple on the nose. Taste is excellent, with those said malts coming to the forefront and balancing nicely with the hops. The maple is not overdone, nor sweet, but lends itself nicely to overall taste profile of the beer. The brewer mentioned it was a recipe handed down from his grandparents.

A pretty superb little porter from a pretty unknown -- at least unknown to me -- place. Very deep, dark black color. Medium-bodied and slightly mild but with some nice, subtle aromas and flavors. A syrupy, lightly smoked nose. Smoke and wood chips on the tongue. Light hop finish with a lingering roasty aftertaste. A very well-balanced, easy-to-drink brew.
