Bottle. Clear light amber color, white head, solid lacing. Aroma of intense roasting pecans. Taste is equally nutty. Nice.

Tap @ De La Vega’s Las Cruces. Pours a clear, dark amber appearance with an off white head. Big pecan syrupy extract aroma. Caramel, syrupy pecan, toffee flavor. Maybe the best here but gimmicky and covers all the beer notes with pecan syrup.

Shared tonight with Mark, thanks for the opportunity. Pours a deep amber color with a smallish off white head that dissipates rather quickly. The aroma is obviously nutty, but to say it was pecan would be a stretch. Sweet caramel and toffee as well as just a hint of earthy hops round out the nose. The flavor is sweet and sugary with a caramel and nutty taste. Medium body with a moderate level of carbonation and a sweet slick mouthfeel. This is an interesting brew that I’m glad that I got to try, although its not something that I think I could drink very much of or very often.

On tap at De La Vega’s. Pours a clear brown color with a thin beige head. The aroma is very reminiscent of pecan pie, with notes of slightly bitter nuts, vanilla, and molasses. The flavor is mild and well balanced initially with a strong sweet finish. It is medium weight and very carbonated. Overall, a fun beer, but a little too upfront with the pecan flavoring.
