Very much like the 2023 but a little more raw, spiky, maybe a little more chocolate up-front. About as hoppy on the finish as the maple.

Roast, thin mouthfeel stout, whiskey and peat, almost? Very mellow, dark finish. Had the most subdued hop character of the three.

Caramel, sweet, just a tinge of smoke and a very present bourbon backing. Definitely a barley wine, with some hop fruit and round bitterness on the finish.
