My 2750th rating entered! Another special beer by Kyle at KRB! Nose of light notes of toffee, cloves, sweetness, oak and balsamic vinegar from the wine barrel. Hazy amber with a small, offwhite, lightly lacing head. Flavor is cloves, corriander, caramel, and a light woody tartness. Love this stuff!

Bottle from South Bay Drug. Pours really dark with a slight dark tan head. Very dark aromas of chocolate, coffee and burnt malt. Near full body with mildly frothy carbonation. Flavor is very smooth burnt malt and chocolate, the coffee holds off a bit. Quite a good drink.

Bottle from South Bay Drug. Pours orangey yellow with a one finger frothy off-white head. Aroma is a bit bready with fruity and grassy hop. Medium body with foamy carbonation. Flavor is lightly bready with some vegy/grassy hop bitter. Pretty drinkable, but it’s not your average IS.

22 oz bottle very generously given to me by irishboy. Pour is a cloudy yellow golden with a pretty 2 inch white head. Thick sheets of lacing remain on the glass as the head falls. Aroma of spicy gingerbread, nutmeg and pumpkin. The allspice is quite evident as well. Taste is a nice toasty malt base with the allspice, pumpkin, and some milk sweetness. Finishes big with the nutmeg. Very much pumpkin pie taste throughout, nice integration. Palate is medium to heavy, coats the mouth, nice spicy finish. Nice pumpkin beer - thanks for giving this one to me Richard.

Bottle - thanks odeed. Dark brown with a finger of creamy tan head. Aroma is roasty and sweet with milk chocolate. Taste is rich with espresso and lightly roasty, more chocolate, and a bittersweet tail. Great mouthful, balanced in flavors, and overall quite pleasant.

Bottle - thanks odeed. A glowing golden orange pour with a modest beige head. Lots of sticky acrobatic lacing. The aroma is simple; sweet and citrusy grapefruit hops. Delicious. The flavor is a sweet and citrus filled hop medley. Just a wonderful blend of sweet and tangy fruity hoppiness. Delicious.
