Adding organic baby bear pumpkins to malt and hops makes this truly a local farm to brewhouse collaboration. A custom blend of six spices rounds out the flavors in this highly anticipated beer.

Clear brown colour with thin head. It's a mega spice bomb. Disgusting aroma with loads if cinnamon and clove. Very medicinal. Sweet gingerbread.

35cl Blik van Beer Republic Advent '23. Diep amber kleur, witte kraag. Kruidig, kaneel, kruidnagel, nootmuskaat, wat pompoen, smaken zijn vrij dun, zou niet zeggen dat dit 7.7% is. Lichte body. Mwah.

Can from the advent calendar, drink watching Monarch on TV+. Dark brown with nice head and a hint of haze. Pumpkin veg aroma, not only spices, hint of caramel. Nice flavor of pumpkin and not as heavy on spices as many others. Moderately high bitterness that's a bit astringent/biting. Not super complex but a tasty pumpkin entry.

Can picked up from Netto and consumed at home Saturday 13th January 2024 still listening to Sprints - Letter to Self. About to cook Chicken Tikka Kebabs with a Basmati Rice and Raita. Pours deep brown, there is s slight deep, dark, garnet colour with an off white head. A touch spicy on the nose, a chewy malty edge, easy drinking, pumpkin is good without being OTT. Like this.

12 fl. oz. can from the Beer Republic advent calendar. Dark red brown in the glass, slightly cloudy, smallest fast fading head. Malty with some coriander sharpness, maybe pumpkin, on the nose. Taste starts also malt, some sweetness, some coriander, spicy, cough drops. Little bit dry in the second part. Very low carbonated. Way better than expected.
