Held up really well. Some oxidation but the maple didn't turn.

Bryan Hovey: I’m starting to think that cellaring beers isn’t a great idea. Seems the best outcome is that they “hold up” and rarely seem to achieve any exponential improvement.

Grant Williams: Well known. Anything with adjuncts is best fresh. Some beers don't degrade too much over time and only a handful might get slightly better.

Quite roasty. Maple syrup. Some oak tannins. A little oxidized. Sweet but fairy thin. Thanks, Chris W.

Bitter, thin, malty base, but the maple smells delicious and tastes fairly good. Lots of barrel on the back end. That base is awful though.

I've been hanging onto this for a special occasion. I bought a house today that seems worthy. All the flavors come through, not too much barrel. This is great.
