It pours a rich mahogany, crystal clear and with light ivory head. The nose is lighter in aroma than previous offerings, a subtle mix of hops from Australasia, grassy, zesty and slightly floral.
The malt is rich, both sweet and dry in equally balance. Made with 5 different malts it provides robust depth as well as a rich lingering sweet note from the added Maple syrup. The final bittering is like a counter balance for the malt, equalling it but not overshadowing its multidimensional prowess. Dynamic and interesting but not quite as rich complex as one might hope.
7/10 An modern Amber with hints of the new world, rich and malty but not too complex
