5 oz. pour on tap as part of a flight at the brewery. Cloudy light brown-dark yellow with thin cap of head with fair retention and light lacing. Aroma is strong tropical fruit, lemon, coconut. Taste is strong orange, pineapple, lemon, coconut. Smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation and dry finish as taste. Tropical and juicy through and through. Very enjoyable!

5 oz. pour as part of a flight on tap at the brewery. Hazy gold-light brown with thin cap of head with decent retention and tons of lacing. Aroma is mild fruit and malt. Taste is oaky, vague coconut. Smooth texture, soft carbonation, crisp finish with mild bitterness. Always felt Cashmere was hugely tropical but maybe more of a support hop. Just OK.

Brewery draught 1/2/23. Clear, pale amber. Small, white head, low retention. Crystal and fuggley hops in the nose with hard water and austere, biscuity malts. Not very expressive yeast. Just vague apple. Hard textured with weird malts and no sweetness/softness whatsoever. Not even interesting yeast. Hard to drink.

Brewery draught, 1/2/23. Light to moderate haze. Pineapple-goldfn. Small head. Pine, scallion, citrus juice. Seems like standard citra, mosaic, Simcoe. Some heavy pine but not resinous. Alcohol and aspirin on the end. Soft, malty, dry, piney. A bit estery, with resin and twang lingering. Cracker, biscuit, scallion. Not undrinkable but very rough.

Brewery draught, 1/2/23. Clear blonde, small, white head, moderate retention. Bit of soap, herbal hops, honey, biscuit, random grains. Toasted sourdough, soap mostly burning off. A little flabby and sweet but clean enough and with good hop character.

Interesting choice to go with a golden stout for a pumpkin beer. Fair bit of pumpkin spice flavor but also picking up some chocolate notes in the finish.
