Sugar ‘n’ spice, and all things nice…

Our sweet, warming dessert sour is inspired by pumpkin & apple pie, topped with a dollop of whipped cream, maple drizzle and a light dusting of pecans – a true autumnal sour for the season.

Draught @ SKAAL Sønderborg. Pours cloudy orange with barely any head. Clear aroma of malt, pumpkin, and cinnamon, with touches of sour yeast. Dry flavour of sour yeast and citrus, with notes of pumpkin, malt, and brown sugar, and touches of gingerbread and cloves. Sour and gingery aftertaste with dry touches. A nice one!

Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is pumpkin spice and apple pie with whipped cream, tart fruits, apricot, cinnamon. Tart and mild sour flavour with some sweetness. Medium body. Bit of a freakshow, but kinda tasty.

Keg at taps@Beaconsfield, 17/10/24. Hazed orange amber topped with an off white head. Nose is bitter sweet fruit esters, pumpkin flesh, herb, light acidic nostril tickle, caramel. Taste comprises spice, apple skins, tangy fruit rinds, herb, pumpkin pie, caramelised brown sugar, lactic tang. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a puckering edge. Does what it says on the tin well ... as pretty much always with VC ... could do with a little more sourness.

Maple, pecan, pumpkin, sweet. This is well done, just not a massive fan of pumpkin flavours in beers!
