Draft pour at Brouwers cafe in Seattle, Washington. Pour is ruby, brown, golden with a smallish off white head. Aroma of big cinnamon and nutmeg spice with some soft vanilla sweetness behind that. Way in the back there is a whisper of grainy malt. Sweet, full bodied nose - smells more or less like pumpkin pie. Taste is big pumpkin pie - nutmeg, cinnamon, whipped cream, even some of the toasty crust. Pretty remarkable, actually. Palate is medium, heavy - pretty light carbonation - coats nicely, finish is more of the nutmeg spice. Interesting, and spot on pumpkin pie.

Dec 17, 2008 Pumpkin spice, cinnamon, toast, and caramel sweetness on the nose. Orange brown, no head. Sweet toasted malts followed by lots of pumpkin spices. I enjoyed the strong spice aspects of this one.

Oct 20, 2008 Draft at Elysian Great Pumpkin Beer Fest (GPBF) 08. Murky, burnished dark amber. Thin, loose, sudsy head. Big pie spice nose. Creamy medium body. Basically a malty amber with a metric fuck-ton of pie spice heaped in. Spicy finish. Needs a little dialing before it can rise to Bill’s usual high standard.

Not that much hops to it, though they are noticeable. Good pumpkin spice aroma and a strong nutmeg taste.
