Nixal
This was no ordinary brew. As a Canadian, there's always a sense of pride in me when a product of maple has any measure of success.
Since it is malted and brewed with methods that are all very similar to the ones used for beer, you could easily mistake it for another ambered ale. But almost half way through your first throatful that distinct maple flavour will hit you.
To the credit of the people crafting this nectar (Maison Rupicole) the balance of maple flavour is perfectly balanced as not to rise above anyone's tolerance. (unless you simply dislike maple flavour)
This one chimes in at 9% alc/vol and it's light colour and flavour might fool you into overindulging. I recommend pacing yourself. Your taste buds and your head will thank me in the morning.
