Can from Tavour. Pours very dark brown with a dark tan head. Aroma is moderate pie spice with some detectable rum. Full bodied. Flavor is pie spice, particularly nutmeg, with rum, chocolate and arguably some non-musty wood. Neither dry nor bitter. I'm sure malt is in it, but I can't find it. Very nice flavor.

Tall can. Blackish pour with a medium sized khaki head that has good retention. Aroma of pumpkin and pumpkin pie spices. Lots of clove in particular. The taste was strong with coconut, and chocolates. Filling in the back and sides were the pumpkin, cloves, cinnamon and all spice. Rum is any was hardly discernable. The palate was thick, viscous, oily and sometimes greasy. Paired well with some comte cheese. Overall: A bit to spicy to be regarded as anything other than a novelty beer. (a new style?)

19.2 oz can from Tavour, 10/17/21. Dark brown / black color, frothy medium brown head. Nice pie spice mix here is all the classics (cinnamon, nutmeg, etc.). I'm not getting a ton of the room barrel at all, just the pumpkin pie spices, a little caramel, and a bit of roast. Rather sweet, but not cloyingly so. Drinks great, the ABV is completely hidden and it's smooooooth. Touch sticky on the close for sure. It's sweet and quite tasty. I have probably reduced my fall pumpkin beer intake down to low single digits the last 4-5 years, so I'm not quite as burned out on the pie spice beers as I used to be, and I'm wondering if that's leading to me appreciating this one more than expected? Maybe this follows some sort of pumpkin beer marginal utility law? I need a pumpkin beer scholar to weigh in; otherwise, it is hard to say. I can say that I like it. I wrote a surprising amount about this beer, not sure what that says either. 8/4/8/4/17

Tall can. Pours black with a smallish beige head. The aroma is dark chocolates, fruits and vanilla. The flavor is more dark chocolate, chocolate covered cherries, vanilla and a hint of bourbon. The palate is full and oily with soft carbonation. Finishes long. Overall Decent.

Tallboy from Tavour. Pours translucent orange gold with a transient slight white head. Aroma of tequila and lime. Med body. Flavor of lime, tequila, musty wood and agave in the finish. Somewhat smoky. Fairly dry despite the agave. Better than expected!

Delicious maple and barrel overdose upfront, chocolatey middle and lingering finish. A crowler of this is just irresponsible, Irresponsibly delicious.
