This is a simple, wonderful Lager. Brewed with very distnctive specialty Canadian Malts. Flavoured with all natural maple for a subtle yet distinctive flavour. Triple filtered, cold fermented and our longest conditing phase. And, Yes, we just liked the name Sap Vampire; it is about the maple.

I thought this had more of a honey note than maple, but I guess maple was there. Medium bodied, on the bloating side of things, slightly tannic mouthfeel that makes me salivate alot. Brown fresh bread, mostly sweet malty beer. Guk.

This was not very good. A nice amber pour started off with a thin head. The aroma was sweet malt, burnt, and maple. The flavour was just as weet, a little too sweet. I love maple, and I love beer, but this is not the best combination.

Bottle: Poured a medium copper color ale with a small foamy head with minimal retention and not much lacing. Aroma of maple is more dominant then I had expected and more enticing then I would have hoped for. Taste is dominated by the maple with some very small amount of residual sweetness which is surprising when you think of the amount of sugar in maple syrup. Very surprising and at least tasting of maple instead of so many other maple beer tasting nothing like maple – but then again I am still wondering if maple should be mixed with beer.

Like breakfast and beer in one! The strong maple aroma and flavor really overpower everything else. Tastes like pancakes with maple syrup. I actually had about 6 of these the other night and did not get sick of the taste like I expected. Worth a try for sure, something completely different.

Taste like pancakes. Beer body is a burnt orange and has zero cap, not even a single small bubble is floating on the surface. All I can smell is syrup this smell very sweet and mapely. Taste is mostly maple syrup with some bread and a mild hop presence if you search hard enough. Taste is very interesting and unique however you get sick of it before your done half the bottle. If you combine this pancake beer, with Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Marzen (the bacon beer) and a nice coffee stout you’ll have yourself a nice breakfast.
