16 oz. can. Aroma is roasted, malt, mild chocolate and a little bit of Earth. Flavor is a direct reflection with a nice roasty finish. Solid body and texture. Hidden alcohol. Well crafted.

16 oz can. Aroma has plenty of nutmeg and cinnamon with mild gourd. The gourd is lightly found through the spice in the flavor. I don’t find graham cracker any place. Yeah, it is a pumpkin ale.

5 ounce draft. Aroma of moderate blueberries with mild acid. In the mouth blueberry is sweet that turns to a lasting tart acid. Exactly what the style calls for. Refreshing.

Can (4/18/23) pour from The Beer Store, Salem. It's a hazy dark gold with nice sparkle, finger-width white foamy head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma is candied citrus, pine and honey malt. Taste is strong citrus, stone fruit, light pine over bread. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, average carbonation and dry finish as taste. Overall, better all around than I was expecting--has it been reworked? Decent APA.
