The recipe for Bearwalker was among one of the first recipes written by Brewmaster Bailey years ago. Bearwalker is a Maple Brown and the recipe pays homage to Bailey’s home state of Vermont by having 100% Vermont Maple Syrup added to it. The result is a very distinctive maple syrup flavor that truly sets this beer apart and warms your belly. According to legend, the Bearwalkers were shape-shifters that would transform into giant, burly bears, usually to help settle their grudges.
