Tap. Pours clear, bright gold wig average, creamy off-white head; decent retention and spare lacing. Aroma is heavy cinnamon, toasted and cookie malts, pumpkin, and floral hops. Flavor is toasted malts forward with heavy cinnamon and nutmeg along with pumpkin notes and light grassy hops for a touch of bitterness; dry finish. Medium body and low carbonation.

Tap. Pours clear dark amber with a medium, frothy off-white head, medium retention with good lacing. Aroma is cinnamon and brown sugar, cookie and caramel malt with light earthy hops. Flavor is malt and spices dominant with light hops and bitterness, light pumpkin and a dry finish. Medium body and carbonation.

The aroma is over the top with pumpkin pie spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove. However, the taste is a bit more subdued, and overall it’s alright.
