Bourbon aroma. Flavor is a nice, balanced blend of bourbon, coffee stout, and chilies. Not overly strong on any of the flavors. Any pumpkin and spice flavors are subdued.

On tap at the beer temple. This is a lovely pumpkin ale. Not as much heat as I expected, but the flavour of the chilis is lovely. Pumpkin and spices intense but nothing is over the top. Bourbon is not intense but BA gives a nice roundness. Lovely!
