This was way to thin. Lot of nutmeg, which can be good or bad depending on your taste.

There's a spice in here that makes it seem like a fall beer. Not necessarily a nut brown. Would be just right if relabeled as some sort of fall seasonal.

Unusual and refreshing. Tastes kinda like how a barbershop smells, definitely medicinal but very interesting. Would be interesting to pair with food

L: Light brown, can see right through the glass. Little head that doesn't last too long after being poured
A: Smells sweet. I get brown sugar and honey. There is also a faint smell of cinnamon.
T: Very shocked. With an initial sip there is the flavor profile of any nut brown ale. But then there appears some fall spice notes. Cinnamon, nutmeg, clove. Almost the same spice profile as a mulled cider
M: A little light on mouthfeel. There is no body to the beer, I wish it was a little thicker
Overall a very unique and enjoyable beer. I loved the fall spice flavor. Definitely worth a try.
