Best Quote During Tasting

Graham crackers were invented to stop people from masturbating.

Justin:

Aroma - There's soft chocolate, soft vanilla and some dry graininess to it. No hops and you can actually find some maple syrup notes which more than likely come from the brown sugar if you look for it.
Score: 10/12
Appearance - The beer is a deep brown with a tan head that starts fluffy and goes down to a slick film.
Score: 3/3
Flavor - There is some sweet vanilla here that plays well with the chocolate. I can't say that it reminds me of a s'more but it's got a toasty quality to it as well. The sweetness from the brown sugar is definitely there but it's not overwhelming. A little bit of alcohol is present
Score: 17/20
Mouthfeel - The carbonation is a little above medium and the body is just under medium. It's a little thinner than I would've liked.
Score: 3/5
Overall Impression - This one sure was missing a creamy mouthfeel and fuller body that I would expect from the style but that's my only real complaint.  It accomplished what it set out to do in mimicking the taste of a s'more.  We recently reviewed a beer that captured that flavor a little better in my opinion (this one) but this one was damn good.
Score: 8/10
