Bottle @ Post-Easter Procrastination, Ulfborg. Pours cloudy full amber with airy beige head. Dusty aroma with a lot of spices, notes of caramel malt and hoppy touches. Sweet-sourish flavour of pumpkin, with malty notes and touches of hops. Hints of cough drop. Vinous aftertaste with sweetish touches. Warming alcohol presence. Interesting but rather medicinal.

Bottle @ Zach’s place with gmellison. Pours a hazy dark orange appearance with a thin cream colored head. Aroma is spicy, has some whiskey, pumpkin, clove, and vanilla. A little strong on the booze- definitely a sipper. A little thin body. There’s some caramel, toasted pumpkin, nuts, and caramel in the mouth. Finishes a bit strong. Pretty good.
