Bottle pour shared by AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! Opaque, inky black, with nice viscosity. Aroma is strong pumpkin spices, carrot cake. Taste is strong pumpkin spices, carrot cake, mild bourbon. Smooth texture, thick body, finish as taste. Doesn't get too sweet. Well balanced.

500mL bottle shared by AFH on 11/23/24. Inky, viscous, no head, dark. Smells like TJ's wife. Creamy, pumpkiny, delicious. Rich, spicy, good amount of bourbon and heavy vanilla. No booze. Thick, rich, juicy, spicy, tons of roasted pumpkin, cinnamon, vanilla, cream cheese. Syrupy, soft, sweet, succulent and yet the cinnamon and roasted pumpkin balance pretty nicely. Mellow and rich at the same time. No booze. Not overly spiced. Different but lovely and unique. Only thing I want is just a bit more thickness from the malt body.

8 oz draft. Aroma is very mild gourd with soft nutmeg and a nice amount of Widow Jane bourbon. Flavor is nothing like that at all. The barrel treatment cuts down the sweetness big time. Has a slick, oily, mouthfeel. Big, bold thick body. Had the non -barrel last year, this far exceeded that. Wonderfully constructed. Fantastic!!
