Can from Tavour. Pours dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma of bourbon and blueberries. Light caramel note. Approaching full body. Flavor is dark caramel with bourbon and blueberries. With a little time some orange zest arrives. Very light oak astringency tho the wood is fairly apparent.

Capped 500 from Tavour. Pours clear dark amber with a decent tan head. Aroma is mild pie spice. Med body or so. Fairly dry, spice stands in for bitter. Bourbon is hard to find, but it's present. A bit of oak astringency. Cinnamon is the prominent flavor component. Veg is detectable, but fortunately pretty well submerged in the spice. Flavorful, lean and clean. Or close to that.

Undated bottle (Fall 2025), drunk 11/20/25, as pictured.
Light bourbon, probably a bit more oak than actual bourbon, and mild, fairly-homogenized pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice. Clean, round, sweet malts adding honey and white bread for balance. No alcohol noted.
Moderate oakiness with only a touch of bourbon richness. Lean, highly attenuated malts with apparent but not obnoxious pumpkin/spice character. Clean and well-constructed, but I think just a bit more malt depth would go a long way here to adding some richness/comfort to the palate.

Can from Tavour. Pours very dark brown with a moderate tan head. Aroma of dark roasty malt with some berries. Med body. Malty but not very sweet. Not all that bitter. Sort of balanced. Flavor is dark malt, berries and orange zest. The malt make it hard for me to decide on boysenberry. But it seems more like those than anything else.

16 ounce can from Tavour. Amber orange pour. Frothy beige head. Sweet toasted malt aroma. Flavor is toasted malt with nutty notes. Balanced nicely with spicy, herbal hops. Medium bodied. Light, dry finish.

16.9 oz bottle. Aroma has notes of coconut, bourbon, wood, vanilla, raisin, pumpkin pie spices. Pours hazy orange with a thin collapsing beige head. Taste has a sweet and savory flavor profile with some light bitterness around the edges. Lovely bourbon and restrained pumpkin spice flavors. Somewhat thin and watery and that’s the biggest flaw here. It’s pretty easy to overlook, though, and pretty great overall.

Tavour: pours copper with white head. Arroma is caramel malts with bread and a hint of hoppiness. Taste is swetish, but with a kind of dryness at the finish and aftertaste. Mellow. Nothing off.

Can from Tavour. Pours very dark brown with a moderate foamy tan head that persisted. Aroma of roasty dark malt and resin. Med body or nearly. Flavor is the aroma plus a lot of citrus. Flavor is nice, but not very strong.
