A sweet milk stout with all the malt characteristics you love but with a bold, unique twist- this beer tastes like a glass full of blueberry pancakes smothered in maple syrup

3.5 483ml can from Home Bargains - Deep murky brown body, thin top. Smoky nose to start, maple comes through, berry at the back. Taste gives the maple syrup and blueberry pancake vibe, albeit a bit artificial. Quite nice to be fair.
3.5 Puszka. Czarny kolor z beżową, średnia pianą, która opada powoli. W zapachu i smaku dominuje słodka, mleczna czekolada, syrop klonowy i nuty borówek. W tle dość słodko:karmel, laktoza, posmaki miodu. Trochę wanili i delikatnej kawy. Świetnie zaakcentowane nuty syropu klonowego i borówek. Wysycenie małe, dość wodniste mimo przyzwoitych 6%,słodycz umiarkowana. Fajny stout.. Bardzo pijalny
3.4 Decent stout, rich creamy and very sweet
3.3 Can shared by Erik. Rather thin body, med-high carbonation. Fully malty, with moderate coffeeish sourness, light astringency. Med-light bitterness and sweetness. The blueberry and maple are med-light, while coffee is intense, moderate chocolate, light toffee. Drinkable, good, but not great.
3.7 Can, a takeaway from the PoW, Farnborough. Initial malty coffee quickly followed by sweet - synthetic - blueberry and underlying maple hints. Dark and inky. Foamy tan head soon fades. OK so a bitter espresso core. Low lying maple with the blueberry sweetness more evident into the finish. Amps up the sweetness. Nice but taste-wise it's all over the place before settling down. Medium bodied. Slick. Oily. Flat-average carbonation. Long astringent finish. Enjoyable if very sweet.
3.7 Can. Pours cloudy very dark brown with airy but stable tan head. Clear aroma of malt and cake, with estery and herbal touches. Dry flavour of blueberries, complemented by sweet notes of cake, caramel malt and yeast, and bitter touches of roast and hops. Dry and cakey aftertaste. A complex but well-balanced and tasty beer.
3.6 Can, 6.0%. Very sweet and syrupy aroma. Almost black colour, seems unclear. Good stable light brown head. The flavour is sweet and citric with a mild but distinct blueberry note. Sweet molasses finish. Roasted, almost smoked aftertaste.
3.7 Jet black pour with a beige froth and little retention. Aroma; malty and berry notes. Flavour; smooth, malty and lactose notes that break into a big blueberry hit on the pallete, the maple syrup adds a sweetness and the stout isn't too bitter as it rounds out. Very unique flavour. I enjoyed this stout!

3.7 ReinheitsVERbot 2019. Surprisingly good stuff. Nice blueberry and chocolate flavors.
4.0 Pretty darn smooth, moderately sweet brew with all the flavors of genuine blueberry and maple. Not smoky but definitely has a full body and is super delicious to sip on.
3.9 Black pour with a tan head. The aroma has syrup and nice blueberry muffin notes. It has a medium body with smooth texture. The taste is sweet and slightly toasted.
4.3 Great blueberry creamy stout. Goes down easy. Will buy again
3.4 Growler at home. Rich malty toffee and maple. Hints of coffee and a slight berry fruit. Smooth berry full body.
3.5 Twelve ounce can. Pours an ebony color with a thick beige head that quickly fades. Smells and tastes better than it sounds. This is a finished product that is well balanced. With the blueberry and the maple, that sounds like a lot going on, but it has a nice nose and a medium, creamy. milky mouthfeel. Some vanilla and a little coffee to. Better than I thought it would be.
3.6 Half a litre of draught at home on 2nd Apr 2021, came in a plastic litre bottle from LowCostBeers, my son having the other half litre. Dark bodied, tanned topping. Nice semi-sweet maple syrup feel over the blueberry flavour and aroma. Nice!
3.9 Really enjoyed this draft stout in the Head of Steam Birmingham on 20.7.20. Blueberries and Maple Syrup comes through very well.
4.0 Can. Dark brown color withthick beige head. Strong aroma of blueberries, maple syrup, chocolade. Sweet taste with maple syrup, blueberries, vanilla, coffee, chocolate. Nice.
3.8 Black, thin beige head which quickly dissipates. Aroma of blueberry and maple syrup with a roasted malt and slight dark chocolate background. Taste is malty at first then the adjuncts come in nicely, followed by roast, then a sweet tangy and mild-bitter finish. Smooth body. This is very good.
3.6 Keg at PSBH, Manchester. Black with a ring of brown head. Enormous blueberry notes, red grape, coffee. Maple finish. Pretty tasty stout.
3.9 Bottle, huge thanks Ryan! Blackish body, off white head. The name doesn't lie! Blueberry, chocolate and (lighter) maple in the aroma, along with some raisins and peach jam too. Quite lovely! Big blueberry-maple taste, sweetish, lean and simple, but there's some roast too to counter it. Not too sweet, pretty wonderful - the extra 2-3 years might've helped it some I guess!
3.5 Black pour with a medium beige head that dissipates quickly to an outer ring. Sparse patches of lace. Aroma of malt, blueberry and maple. Medium body with flavors of roast malt, maple and subtle blueberry and strawberry. The finish is sweet with a blueberry maple syrup aftertaste. Decent overall.
4.0 Can thanks to Drake! Pours nearly black with a small tan head... somewhat thick. Interesting aroma of blueberry, maple, smoke, vanilla, chocolate... it reminds me of pancakes from when I was 5 and playing with the various syrups at Perkins. Flavor is blueberry, maple, vanilla, honey, and almost a light spice. Not too sweet. Enjoyable!
3.7 Bottle from Beersniffers. Pours a pitch black colour with a small beige head. Strong aromas of blueberries and maple, some milk chocolate, vanilla and hints of liquorice. Taste has more blueberries, maple, milk chocolate and also some ashy notes. Medium to full bodied, low carbonation, smooth very slightly oily mouthfeel. Nice
3.8 Tight foamy light brown head left a decent cover on a near black still body. Sweet malt & liquorice aroma. Medium bodied super smooth over the tongue with a tickle on the aft. Sweet blueberry, liquorice, malt, syrup & creamy tastes with long finish. Very tasty indeed.
4.6 A black appearance with a beige head. The aroma oh wonderful with some blueberry, maple, chocolate, and caramel. I could sniff this all day. The flavor contains some milk chocolate, blueberries, and maple syrup. Its a little sweet but not as much as you'd imagine. Damn this is good. Not something I usually say in a rating and Ive had fruit infused stouts before this is by far the best.

3.8 На удивление ничего. Мягинький и приятный стаут. Добавки ненавязчивы и создают приятный запах и вкус.
3.5 12oz bottle at my hotel room bought at Bottleshop, Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago. BB 08/08/2020. black color, small coffee colored head. smells earthy, licorice, some berry notes, vanilla, marzipan, burned brown sugar, nice smell. full body, soft carbonation. tastes of vanilla, marzipan, berry notes, some burned sugary notes, bit buttery, some light maple, blueberry once it warms more up. finishes lightly bitter with notes of marzpian, fudgy and berry notes. nice one, flavours are a touch on the artifical side, but overall good beer. 7, 4, 7, 3, 14
3.5 Piana mikra, beżowa, bardzo szybko się ulotniła, niewiele można napisać. Kolor czarny, trunek nie przejrzysty. Zapach,,, a jakże jagodowy, ale w ciekawym stoutowym połączeniu, czyli z kawą z mlekiem, do tego czekoladą, syropem klonowym, choć tego to najmniej wyczułem. Smak jest lekko ulepkowo-słodki, ale próbuje go przełamać kawa, wraz z lekką palonością. Po słodkiej stronie mocy stoją czekolada, syrop klonowy, no i oczywiście jagody. Trochę się czuję jakbym pił lody jagodowe, polane obficie, albo zanurzone w kawie. Co przeszkadza, zbytnia kwaskowatość, ale ten rodzaj tak ma. Nie żałuję zakupu.
