Mini growler thanks to Dan. Pours a clear copper reddish color with a medium white head. A huge spicy sweet nose. The flavor is big sweet sugary spicy notes, cinnamon, huge cloves. Wow. Over the top. This should have an abv of 15 to be this big. But a fun beer.

Gottah hand it to yah, from a bottle this smells just like good mouthwatering creamy sweet pumpkin pie. But that’s the eye opener; once you taste it you forget all about the pleasant aroma. Taste is alky laced sweeter pumpkin pie, compared to most pumpkin beers, this is cloying sweet, whewwie. Yes, strong difficult, almost makes me wannah give up. Later, I’m not sure it is alky in there, come on more like interesting pumnkin medicine fer sure. Yowser bowzerrrr. Best thing about this is the 603 glass I’m drinken it out of. There is some co2 in this but overall its a viscous mouth coating experience on the finish.

Really surprised at how much I liked this one. +++ Sampled on draft this beer poured an orange-caramel color with a medium sized foamy white head that faded and left no lacing. The aroma was strong cinnamon sugar, ginger and clove. The flavor was strong cinnamon sugar, nutmeg, clove and ginger. Very long finish. medium body. So sweet it is hard to drink a lot of it but really tasty.
