Nov 26, 2009 Decent toasty roasty nose with noticeable light sour aromas as well. . Murky amber brown. Flavor is sour initially with a hint of roast and dark malts. More roast and lightly chemically note that I did not enjoy at all. Odd weird unpleasant finish.

Nov 5, 2009 NOTE: Dark Sour Pumpkin Ale
Elysian Great Pumpkin Beer Festival 2009 – Seattle, WA
Big sweet tart aroma with a nice amber color. The flavor was super tart and very off tasting not one of the best I have had.

Nov 5, 2009 Bronzed amber with luscious, tanned head. Full- bodied with decent medium-sour flavor, but no discernable pumpkin. A drinkable, middle-of-the-road sour ale.

Nov 1, 2009 Tap at Blind Tiger. Deep dark amber pour. The nose is fairly unusual. There is a bit of light tartness over a thin malt sweetness. There is a kiss of light balsamic character on the nose. There is a bit of light sweetness and some dark fruitiness, some cherry and a bit of light almost bretty cologne character. There is a nice wildness on the back of the palate that really blends nicely with the soft sweet toasted malts and molasses with a touch of light spiciness along with a bit of molasses. A touch of light spiciness on the back. I actually quite like this.

Oct 21, 2009 Tap at the Blind Tiger for Elysian’s Pumpkin Beer night. Murky brown pour. Sour, young balsamic aroma, with that ever-present pumpkin kick. A bit less distinct in the flavor, more malt and spice and more balanced. Tastes like a blend between a decent pumpkin ale and a mild sour. Works for me. Delightful.
