Pumking - Cold Brew Coffee Nitro
Southern Tier Brewing Company

Deep brown, orange, cloudy colour with a very thick, white, beige foamy nitro head. The smell is of pumpkin pie, pumpkin, spices, cinnamon, caramel, etc. The taste follows the nose. Extremely smooth and creamy feel. Taste like whip cream on a pumpkin pie put into a glass. I’m not getting much coffee, but there is a hint of it. I got this in Grand Rapids Michigan, in 2022 around this time of year. Drinking it December 18, 2023 in Phuket Thailand. Excellent brew!

Stupid

 

13.6 fl oz nitro can. Poured into a tulip pint glass. Shared with my wife. Pours a clear copper color with beautiful nitro cascading action. Aroma and flavor feature the usual (delicious) Pumking spice blend, caramel, and coffee. Very tasty and well-balanced. Mouthfeel is incredibly smooth and reasonably "prickly" for a nitro beer. Overall my wife and I agreed this is fantastic version of Pumking.

Pours a murky amber color with a one finger foamy white head. I can smell pumkin spices pretty easily with coffee in the background. Tastes much like it smells. Sweeter than I expected for a beer with cold brew coffee. I expected more bitterness, but it is not there. Medium bodied and creamy. Moderate carbonation. Has a sweet aftertaste. a nice beer. I wish there woud have been a stronger coffee presence, but still a nice beer.

 

 

With the pop top opened, a loud hiss fills the room that lingers for a second or two. This is the nitro filling the liquid in the can.

This brew pours a murky brown with a thin head. It should be noted that there is beauty to behold when poured into a glass, with the nitro foaming tiny rivulets of bubbles to the bottom. Aroma is pumpkin, coffee and cinnamon. Coffee hits first, followed by pumpkin but long after the can is opened, cinnamon becomes the dominant aroma profile.

Nitro improves the flavor here, giving a smooth, buttery flavor to the whole affair. Taste is prominently pumpkin with nutmeg and butter or toffee flowing through this profile. Carbonation is flat, or nearly so, and this brew would benefit from more, imho. Coffee becomes more pronounced as the brew warms. Overall, a fair pumpkin ale.

 

 

 

 

Another really good and interesting beer from my brother in Ohio. The addition of coffee in this beer makes it only better, but that's just my opinion.

Served in an imperial nonic pint glass

This beer pours a brownish shade of orange and murky. It is topped with a couple inches of creamy, tan head that leaves spotty lacing.

Nice combo of pumpkin spices and coffee. I even get a little chocolate.

Delicious mixture of pumpkin spices upfront. Coffee follows in the rear. The combination of flavors is nice. I also get a little chocolate in the flavor.

Smooth bodied with a creamy mouthfeel

Pumking is one of my favorite pumpkin beers. The coffee in this version is a nice addition plus, the nitro makes is smooth as Barry White's vocals.

It's hard to describe the beauty of this beer. It is a foamy mix starting off, and looks quite creamy. Dark red is the main body after the nitro mixes in the beer. The remaining head lasts long, and it continues a bit throughout.
The aroma is mostly coffee, and there's a hint of the pumpkin spices.
The flavor is a mix of the coffee and pumpkin spices. These flavors are well balanced and work right together.
The body is soft and creamy - from the nitro. Very smooth.
Delicious!
