Beer Review - Picaroons Maple Cream Ale
Picaroons Traditional Ales makes this seasonal and the high cost of maple syrup makes it an expensive endeavor. It is labeled a brown cream ale that is conditioned as a lager and brewed as an ale. It weighs in at 5% ABV. Appearance - The beer is a very deep dark copper color with a thin head almost non-existience. Aroma - I get mostly malt with maple and sweet smelling undertones. Taste - I got a malty taste with more maple flavor than sweetness and a pleasant dry finish. Mouthfeel - It is a light to medium mouth feel with a decent amount of carbonization. Overall - I really enjoyed the beer, it has a lot going on there but bottom line is a good beer
