Beer of the Week

The beer: Maple Warlock

The brewery: Southern Tier Brewing Company, Lakewood, New York

Description (from Untappd): "The Dark Side just got a little sweeter! Maple Warlock lures you in with a magical dose of maple syrup to complement his dark and mysterious Imperial Stout base. Let Maple Warlock’s swirls of maple, pumpkin pie spice, and roasted malts enchant you sip by sip, casting an alluring spell you won’t want to break."

Would I buy it again? There may be beers more appropriate to the Halloween season than an imperial stout with both pumpkin and maple in it, but I'm having difficulty thinking of any. All Southern Tier had to do was not mess it up with too many hops, and I'm happy to report that they did not. This is a great beer, thick and maple-y with just the right amount of pumpkin spice to compliment. You can't do much better than this.
