Jack-O Traveler is an alluring wheat beer illuminated by the tastes of fall. He strikes a perfect balance between bright refreshment and seasonal spice. Jack is brewed with fresh pumpkin, for a delicious dark-hued, Shandy-inspired beer.

Outstanding pumpkin brew. Sad that it's retired.

On tap at Joe’s Crab Shack in Clifton. Pours a copper, ruddy hue with minimal frothing. Assertive aroma replete with hints of caramel and nutmeg. Similar overall flavor profile.

This goes a long with the October theme, of course this makes a great brew when the leaves are falling. A different variety to the Oktoberfests. This one has variations of sweet and bitter. This one seems to a bit sweeter than the others but still has a very refreshing palate. This one is not really deriving from any style but takes a shandy characteristic to it, which is extremely interesting.

On tap at Oak and Stone. OK, this one is silly sweet. As much like a candy apple as a pumpkin pie. Great after-taste. At one reviewer's suggestion, I mixed it with an IPA. Not sure that worked.

Draft. Reasonably fresh. Revoltingly sweet, excessive cinnamon (on the high end even amongst other pumpkin brews). More like an alcopop than a beer. Looks a good copper colour, good head retention.
Might mix OK with a dryish hoppy beer, but rating this on the basis of it representing itself as beer and not just a flavouring.
