Rich deep brown coloured body with a tannish, single centimetre tall head. Aroma of caramelised sugars, malt, a touch of spices and very little else. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong malty flavours throughout with a mild spicey character showing some allspice and a touch of canella along with a bit of sugars and off-flavours. Aftertaste shows sweetness, malt, earth, pungent sugars and pitted fruits and ending with a relatively pungent flavour of malt, light spices, earth and a hint of the yeast and funk around the edges. Overall, a decent-ish beer with some stronger earthier and pungent, almost medicinal characteristics that show some sweetness, grain and complexities, but not overwhelmingly so. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Total Wine in Fairfax, Virginia on 10-September-2017 for US$2,79 sampled at home in Washington on 05-December-2017.

Draft. Murky dark brown color, thick beige head, solid lacing. Aroma of multiple spices. Taste has more gourd than spice - a rare and cherished thing. Gotta like that high pumpkin to nutmeg ratio. Light body. Tasty.

Allspice and roasted malt aroma. Cloudy brown, thick yellow head. Very watery. Caramel, slight astringency, allspice, and graham cracker. Really neat idea, although I had expected more of a clove presence.

Draft at Whole Foods Market Short Pump, VA. Pours a murky brown color with a thin creamy tan head. Decent head retention and nice lacing. Aroma of wheat, pumpkin, caramel and ginger. The taste is tart wheat, pumpkin and caramel. Medium bodied, highly drinkable. Nice beer.
