16oz can from Tavour. Clear amber pour with a thin, firmly layer of beige foam. Pumpkin pie spice leads the aroma, some pumpkin noticable. Cinnamon and other savory spice open the taste, spicy, mouth coating dry. I thought I was done with this style for the season.

Can from Tavour: pours a clear amber with an off white head. Aroma is pretty pleasant with spice, malts, and caramel. Taste, by virtue of actually adding pumpkin to a pumpkin beer, is rather bitter and sort of medicinal. It gets better as it warms up a bit but my first sips were decidedly unpleasant. The rest of my sips were moderately so. They clearly put thought and effort into this, but it really did not do it for me.

Draft.
A- Mahogany brown color, dark liquid, beige head.
A- Raisins, butterscotch, plum, whisky.
F- Raisins, caramel bread, brown sugar, whisky, vanilla, slightly sweet.
P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly boozy finish.
O- Saw this on Tavour and since I was in Phoenix the next day passed on the bottle and went to visit instead. Had three beers here the other two which were mediocre, but this was absolutely worth the quick detour to visit. Outstanding beer even for the style. Complex, balanced, so good. Now I wish I would've bought a bottle or at least had another pour. Nice stuff.

Draft.
A- Brown color, dark liquid, light brown head.
A- Peanut butter, nutty, cocoa.
F- Bitter, nutty, roasty, mild pie spice, slightly sweet.
T- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly unbalanced finish.
O- Looks like the creama on an espresso shot. The aroma was fairly nice and definitely hit the nutty pie aspect but the taste was a let down. Just didn't blend well. Okay.

Can from Tavour: clear gold with white head. Aroma is lemony, tropical friitiness, light grass. Taste is fairly dry while still being quite juicy. Nice lager. More I get from this brewery the more I like them.

Can from Tavour. Pours hazy gold with a moderate white head. Aroma of nectarine and citrus. Med body. Juicy but well towards dry. Moderately bitter. Flavor is good and quite complex for me. Citrus, nectarine, melon, earth and I think more. Quite food flavor and it's a fairly strong flavor.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear bright gold with a slight white head. Aroma of peach with a citrus note. Not quite med body. Very dry. Pale malt supports flavor of lemon, peach and passion fruit. Crisp. Clean. Tasty.
