This.. this is interesting. It's pumpkin spicy, but the cranberry is tarty and fruity. The balance is just a mess.

Slightly hazy amber and brown coloured body with a muddied ruby glow and a thinnish, two centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of tart cranberries, grain, light squash, a touch of spice and some sour notes - nice and aromatic throughout. Light to Medium-bodied; Tart cranberry flavour at first with a touch of grain and squash, some coriander seed freshness and a bit of nutty and earthy flavours finish this out, but the majority of the flavour comes from the tart cranberries. Aftertaste has a puckering from the cranberries, but also shows some light sugars, grain and caramelised sugars coupled with a tiny bit of squash and allspice. Overall, a nice and tart beer that shows well, especially compared to the other fall-related beers - this is a welcome departure, but holds up even in February, when i’m sampling it! I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Liqour Outlet in Boonton, New Jersey on 26-November-2016 for US$1,69 sampled at home in Washington on 07-February-2017.

Can from Total Wine, Gainesville. Pous hazy brown with a beige head. Aroma of pumpkin spice, fruit, vegetation. Flavor is tangy cranberry followed quickly by pumpkin spice, followed by more cranberry. Interesting, but maybe not a perfect match.

From a 12 oz. can. Pours a clear amber with an ecru head. Aroma of pumpkin pie spices. Flavors of cloves and cinnamon with tart cranberry. A different take on a pumpkin ale. Okay.

Sampled on draft at 3R6P this beer poured an orange-caramel color with a medium sized foamy orange-white head that left decent lacing. The aroma was sweetish with caramel, nutmeg, cinnamon and a hint of vague fruit. The flavor was tart and sourish with cranberry, nutmeg, cinnamon and a touch of bread. Long finish. Medium body. Ok.

Pour is a red-ish with a small white head. Aroma is full of pumpkin pie spice. Plenty of cinnamon and nutmeg. Flavor is more of some cranberry tartness and the pumpkin spice kind of dissappears. Kind of the best of both beers. Aroma of a pumpkin beer with the flavor of cranberry juice.

Rose colored. Nice look! Slight tart fruit smell. Yes, taste is mildly tart. Yea! has pumpkin in there, I detect the real thang. This is pretty yummy for a pumpkin beer. Nice job! Terra, you got one of the more civilized and enjoyable lighter punky beers here.

Can Mostly clear amber with a small off-white head. Aroma a lot of cranberry and a bit of pumpkin spice. Tart cranberry comes first then some sweetness develops as the pumpkin comes across. Better than I thought it would be.

Clove and cranberry nose. Hazy amber, medium head. Tart currant but with cranberry hints. Finishes malty and with pumpkin. Medium body, soft carbonation. Really nice variant of an outstanding beer.
