24oz bomber into a straight mug!

pours a simple brownish color thats lightens up when it reaches the foamy head. minimal lace

maple maple maple and thats about it. no bacon whatsoever.

ummm, where did the maple go? where did anything go? wheres the beef man? this beers falls flat. i guess if you take a pirate swig you get some maple but its mostly the aftertaste

light bodied almost like a light beer

do not buy seriously...i paid 14.99 for this and not only do i feel ripped off i feel like pressing rape charges against the store i bought this from. its not a bad beer just misleading

Definitely a different beer - I struggled through the first glass, but am now starting to enjoy it at the end of the bottle... ?! Heavily smoke-forward, there are definite maple and bacon notes - but overall a bit of a mess.

Pours a hazy light brown with yellowish tinges. Minimal head that disappears quickly. Aroma of smoked meat, with an industrially sweet maple backbone. The flavour starts sweet with a malt basis, albeit no "donut" that I can discern. This transitions rapidly into a smoky, smoky finish – almost overpowering.

A very different beer and glad to have tried it, although buying one bottle would have been enough!

A pretty rough beer. I, for the record, have had the bacon maple bar from Voodoo, and it is delicious. When you try to put it in beer form, it is terrible. The smell is off putting right from the start: a heavy smokiness with a hint of sweet. I read a review on here that says it tastes like dirty grill water, and that's about right. The overwhelming smoke flavor sticks, in a bad way. It stays in your mouth too. Thank god I had other beer in the fridge. I poured out a twelve dollar bottle of this stuff. The only decent thing is the appearance, with a nice thick head and good lacing. After that abandon ship.
