Re-rate from bottle. Red cloudy chestnut, big golden brown foam. Nice roast, berry and citruspeel nose. Medium full chunky roasted peanut, berry caramel, and a good aromatic hop wallop. Very flavorfull but remains quite drinkable and moreish. Old rating: 7 4 7 3 12 Tap at Tilmanns fest. Perfumed roast notes, medium body, sticky, perfumed stickiness, a bit unbalanced.

Can from the brewer himself. Orange Amber, very light haze, decent head. Fruity esters, tropical and citrus. Flavor has some piney notes behind to balance the tropical fruits. Caramel rounds it out very well. Not one of those overly bitter medicinal IPA's - very smooth and drinkable!

On tap at True Brew Friday 15th November 2019. In the company of Arthur Kostas and Giovanna. I had this after the True Brew Pumpkin Ale which for me was easily the better of the two. Pours hazy light gold with a white head, soft mouthfeel, thin and watery a little light lemony bite. In comparison to the True Brew version of this style, the Pumpkin is lacking here, however if you like the Pumpkin to be much more subtle then this would be the beer for you.
