A Note on This Beer
If you think Maple Fiends won’t do just about anything for the woodsy, toffee-like sweetness that only comes from real maple syrup, think again.
The Wall Street Journal reported back in 2012 that some serious syrup bandits stole about $30 million worth of maple syrup from Canada’s maple syrup reserves in Quebec (seriously, we are not making this up!). It sounds like a sticky situation alright, but that really is the kind of lengths Maple Fiends will go to get their fix of this sugary gold!
To any Maple Fiends out there who might be planning their next syrup heist, listen up:
Tavour may not have millions of pounds of syrup to run off with, but we do have the hookup on real maple-syrup with today’s Imperial Maple Porter from Washington’s Backwoods Brewing.
Backwoods crafted this brew with all the naturally toasty character and caramel-like magnificence of 100% real maple syrup. Right from the start, a wallop of maple syrup envelops the nose, hinting at the sticky sweetness that’ll soon be enjoyed. Take a sip, and you find a soft and creamy body with flavors of roasty chocolate and smooth vanilla. With a delightfully drinkable 7% ABV, it’s the dessert Porter that’s guaranteed to satisfy any crafthead’s maple cravings.
Made by the Washington Beer Award-winning brewers at Backwoods, the Imperial Maple Porter is the ultimate in boozy, mapley goodness. And the best part is, you don’t have to rob anyone to get it!
