Deep dark brown coloured body with a thick, three centimetre tall off-white head that fades very slowly and leaves a subtle lace on the sides of the glass. Aroma of deep allspice and pitted fruits with some raisins and nutmeg here as well with a good deal of squash at the end with a definite hit of caramelised sugars, too. Medium-bodied; Rich squash flavours and consistency show at first with a pungent sweetness and a big hit of the spice at the end that blends well with the slight rustic and earthy notes from the grain that's still here. Aftertaste shows a nice balance of rich squash and pungent spices that hit nicely with a good deal of sugars at the tail end. Overall, a very nice squash-based beer with a good level of both spices and sugars that is complex, robust and fairly easy-drinking, considering that I'm doing it outside in sunny Florida in May, this is a nice option for the style! I sampled this sixteen ounce pint-sized can purchased from ABC Wine & Liqour in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, yesterday on 30-April-2022 for US$3,39 sampled at the pool here at my hotel in Orlando, Florida on 01-May-2022.
