Not really a big fan of this one. Has kind of a spoiled aroma. Not sure how to describe it, almost as if a pumpkin (or some other type of fruit) was rotting. Has a bitter taste to it that is a bit unpleasant. Aftertaste isn’t all that bad but it still has a bitterness to it.

Bottle shared by CaptainCougar. Light colored hazed orange with a small white head. Medium bodied and chewy, some strange ginger, thyme, mint and pumpkin spice flavors and aromas, somewhat bright and sharp on the palate. Good for what it is but suffers from blandness.

12oz bottle, courtesy of CaptainCougar. Thanks, Tom! Pours a slightly hazy orange color; thin off-white head with patchy lacing. Basic sugars, stale orange fruits, and wet malts in the aroma. Medium mouthfeel: relaxed carbonation; oranges, light bitterness, and stale malts; a bit past its prime at this point; some caramel and toasted malts at mid-palate. Medium finish: toasted grains, huskiness, sugar, and some basic mineral bitterness.

This beer pours an clear orange amber color with a think head initially and then fades a little. It has a nutty and carmel malt aroma to it. the flavor is very typical yet it is nice and sweet with some nice earth tones and hints of carmel and roasted toffee. the palate is nice and smooth and leave a nice carmel residue on the back of your tounge.

Faint to no smell, golden copper color, butter-spice-malt hop taste. Poured brom bottle. Easy to drink, average US oktoberfest beer.

Draught. Amber pour with thin cream colored head. Aroma of hops, malt and brown sugar. Taste of nuts with a hoppy finish. A little too sweet, but not bad.
