Maple scotch ale? Color me intrigued! Bad sign when the bottle pours like there's cottage cheese in the bottom. Like, we're talking a ton of sediment. Flavor's okay, caramel but very dry. Chunks disturbing though.

Wow, much more coffee bitterness than what I remembered.

Rich, believable sweet coffee flavor, but comes on a little too strong and bitter to be truly enjoyable.

Just like drinking an espresso. Roasted coffee smell. Caracteristic coffee flavor and bitterness/sourness. Very good if you like coffee.

Basically tasted like an Americano, and if you squint you notice the bubbles and alcohol. Lots of roast, pure coffee flavor, and big cooked bitterness at the end. It was a little much for me; I like my coffee milder. I could tell this was a good beer, but it just wasn't quite to my taste.

Not my first time having this one... still not a fan of it. It's pretty bitter. Feels to me like its bitterness is plain and boring with no interesting flavors to smooth it down. It's only redeeming quality to me is the interesting warm finish you get after drinking a few gulps of it thanks to the peppercorns it's brewed with.

Belgian style IPA with the good characteristics of both.
