Maplewood Brewing Company Barrel Aged Cuppa B&B
What the brewers say
“This barrel-aged stout is a remarkable expression of barrel, beer, and coffee.”
What our panel thought
“Oak barrel and bourbon sing in the aroma with an undernote of smooth coffee roast, chocolate, caramel. The flavor features smooth aged bourbon. While the bourbon is the star of the show, the underlying beer has flavorful cocoa and coffee notes, subtle vanilla notes, and a boozy warmth.”
What our editors thought
“Bold coffee and liqueur in the aroma, boozy and enigmatic with flashes of dark fruit. Roasted coffee layers over roasted malt for a double hit of dark in the sip.”
