Aug 14, 2009 12oz. Bottle: Aroma of roasted and burnt malts, light pumpkin, tar, pipe tobacco, slight clove, and slight spices. Smells like a tobacco shop. Poured dark brown/ruby in color with a small, light brown head that diminished but lasted around the edges. Clear. Sparkling. Flavor is lightly bitter. Tastes of burnt malts, a hint of pumpkin, and nothing else. Medium body. Slightly dry texture. Average carbonation. Burnt malt and hint of pumpkin finish. Ewww.

Jun 12, 2009 A lost rating from a tasting with Oakes and Beershine in March. Black pour, tan head. Flavor is very nice. Reminds me of a chocolate pumpkin pie I had at a restaurant once. Flavor is nice too. Some pumpkin, spices, espresso and chcolate.

May 29, 2009 12-oz. Pours jet black with a nice-looking, if momentary, creamy tan head. Moderate lacing. Roasty, chocolatey, pie-spice-like notes on the nose. Creamy medium body. Mild carb. The roast, chocolate, and pie spice come back for the mid-palate, falling into a nice cookie dough finish. Not bad. Kick-ass label.

Mar 20, 2009 Rather unusual but tasty. Very dark chocolate and roasted malt in the nose. Detected no squash there. Then the palate noticeably carried the pumpkin flavor. Along with chocolate, sweetness, coffee, grittiness. Dark beer with light dots of lacing. Interesting.

Mar 15, 2009 Small dark-beige head over jet-black beer. Liquorice & lavender, pine or spruce, but not hoppy. Slightly peppery aroma too, maybe. Sweet, smoked and very roasted. Jumble of spices throughout, but no way of telling what - except some cinnamon impression. Bit uneasy balance. Medium bodied, very slick, grist. Not bad, but I get the impression that the intended flavours don’t work optimally together. Big thnaks to DavidA!
