Can shared in Bristol - thanks to Danny. Poursbckear deep brown with a frothy, tan head. The nose holds well toasted autumnal herbs, brown bread, burnt earth. Medium sweet flavour with more autumnal slicing, brown bread, faint cocoa, scorched earth. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Balanced finish, more well toasted brown bread, autumnal spices, pumpkin flesh, a little roast. Good stuff.

Can big thanks to messed up Dan. It pours cloudy dark brown with a small beige head. The aroma is rich roasted malt, earthy roast, cinnamon, toasted nutmeg, cocoa and chai latte. The taste is dry, bitter, earthy, cocoa, toasted nutmeg, coffee grounds, cinnamon, peppery spice, chewy action and leather with a drying finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. A touch sweet perhaps, but not bad.

Dan's Stag. Hotel room tasting. Can. Clear brown - amber beer, small tan head. Palate is smooth and semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Soft dry malts, trace of dry cream. Pumpkin and a little dry spice. Light caramel and a little dark fruits. Dry finish. Don't get the latte angle, just another dry pumpkin beer.

Not bad, juicy as hell with tons of bright mango, grapefruit, and peach notes oozing from the hops. The malts make for a mild cracker-and-grain base, while the back end grows dry and bitter, resinous but also a tad medicinal, leading to a whitebread fade slathered in quinine. Again, a pretty good pint, but could use a little more malt heft to balance out the lingering bitterness. Amazing hop nose, packed with citrus and berry and hints of dank. Pours a slightly hazed gold with a thin white head and solid lacing. Perky texture is medium-bodied and very drinkable. Close, but not quite a winner.

Level 42 bottleshare. Can thanks to Cloin. Light haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light and fairly dry, good fine carbonation. Light smooth and sweetish malts, touch of malt cream. Punchy tangy grapefruit and tangerine marmalade. Loadsa hop spice, Light finish leaves hop spice lingering on. Good stuff, I enjoyed this much more than everyone else.
