We use pumpkin puree as a portion of the mash bill, trying that its character be present in the finished beer. During the maturing process we add vanilla beans that endows beer with its aromas and flavors.
Golden beer, clean and with a good white head. Sweet aroma contributed by the pumpkin and spicy notes of vanilla. Pleasant sweetness is balanced by the hops bitterness. Malt appears providing cereal flavors, roasted and delicate caramel notes. Medium body.

Draught, half pint. Tasted on the 05/11/2018 at "A Galiciana". Clear orange colour with a medium and foamy white head. Surprisingly really good looking. Aroma is cinnamon, pumpkin, bread, sweet malts and some spices. Taste is pumpkin puree, corn, sweet malts, diluted cinnamon and some other spices. Finish is light and herbal. Not bad but someway not intense. Next one please!
