marius (5064) reviewed Butter Pecan Maple Stout from Central Waters Brewing Co. 1 week ago

Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 8

Dark brown pour with a fluffy tan head. Huge maple notes up-front, followed by toffee, caramel chocolate, more toffee, cherries, sugar, more sweet stuff. Quite good, but very sweet and one-dimensional.

Pitch black pour with a thin tan ring head. Bourbon, oak, liquid chocolate, cacao nibs, Oloroso sherry, dried cherries, almonds, walnuts. Another amazing imperial stout from this series - really well-balanced and insanely complex. Cycle never ceases to amaze.

marius (5064) reviewed Coffee Maple Stout from Central Waters Brewing Co. 2 weeks ago

Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 8.5 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 9 | Overall - 8.5

Dark brown pour with a fine-grained tan head that gives way to a thin lacing. Coffee, sweet maple, burnt caramel, espresso, roasted malts, nuts, oak, more maple. Smooth texture, a decent attempt at balancing the sweetness with the roast, a nice bitter-sweet finish, more sweet than bitter. Good stuff.
