Definitely the oddest of autumn beers I'll try this
year, The Bruery's Autumn Maple is made with cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, molasses, vanilla,
maple syrup, brains, people and who knows what else. Okay, not the last two,
but you get the idea. This is a beer that is immediately rich with
all sorts of smells, from strong smells of allspice and vanilla with a touch of
funk in the nose. The beer itself pours a nice cloudy brown with a fluffy inch
of head that dissipates pretty quickly. The taste is an assault that
reminds me of some seriously cooked up sweet potato fries, with nice yammyness
and rich molasses sweetness. The funk from the nose is there giving a
nice tart twist to an otherwise deliciously sweet beer. Overall
this is a beer that's worth opening with a friend and sitting back and enjoying
something that's really worth enjoying, like It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie
Brown or The Big Lebowski. Either way it needs to be sipped and enjoyed.
