Just had a few sneak sips of this year's Utopias. WOW! Ethanol and malt! Hot! Maple? (Message edited by listermann on October 02, 2007) |

Yes, they told me they use maple syrup in it. I saw the Utopia(s) in the wooden barrels at the brewery a few weeks back. |

Graham, do you know if they also used maple syrup in the Sam Adams Triple Bock? It certainly tastes like it. |

No, Bill, they didn't say anything about that. I didn't think to ask since I haven't had or even seen one in many years. |

Of course there's no law against selling fortified wines in inner city liquor stores in any of those states. Go figure!  |
