Draft at the source.

A- Deep mahogany body with an almost cola hue in the middle. Tap to becher leaves a small off white cap to one finger which falls to a tiny ring. Spotty lace.

S- Malts up front with sweetness and spices rounding that out. Toasty grains, slight roast, caramel, cola, nuts and general fall spices.

T- Rounded out a bit more in the flavor. Really feels like an autumn beer in a mild ale suit. Toasted nuts, caramel, slight spiced dry dark fruits, roastsquash sugars, earthy spicy hops, earthy cinnamon woodsy bark, clove, coffee and toffee.

MF- Very light end body with a medium low carbonation. Texture is puffy and creamy smooth. Light bitterness.

Easy drinker with mild ale malts, toasted squash and tasteful spices.

 

 

 

 

 

On tap at the brewpub. This was poured into one of their half pint glasses. The appearance was a ruddy brown color with a bar pour’s kind of slim head that dissipated left no lacing. The smell started off with some smoky sweet-like meatiness opening up into a delicate underscore of pumpkin. The taste was mainly sweet again through the meatiness and pumpkin adding a touch of toasty/breadiness (like an English mild ale should). Rolling sweet touch of herbal to slightly sweet bready aftertaste slyly moving into the finish. On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a nice sessionability to it. Carbonation runs really low as it should (almost like its on cask). The smoothness of this ale is mighty fine. Overall, wow, super nice take on a style that no one wants to bother with these days. Props to Pro Pig for adding their take, nicely done guys!
