Orange Russian
Commonwealth Brewing Company

16oz can poured into a tulip

A- pours a slightly hazy bright golden orange with a one-finger foamy white head that has good retention

S- initial aroma smells like pumpkin spice coffee, with undertones of marshmallow, vanilla cream, orange zest and orange truffle, very nice

T- slightly sweet up front with a blast of vanilla cream, with plenty of milky lactose. Mid-palate brings out some pumpkin and light roast coffee that is a perfect compliment to the creamy note. The finish brings out some zesty orange, along with more vanilla cream and light roast coffee. Lingers of coffee and pumpkin

M- medium body with moderate carbonation leads to a foamy mouthfeel that turns slightly creamy into the finish

O- I've had almost 200 different beers with pumpkin, this one is among the best. It's like a pumpkin spice latte

Poured moderately hard from a tall can into a snifter glass, forming maybe a finger of white head. Cloudy orange color. Smell is orange zest. Taste is a mix of pumpkin, marshmallow, and orange but not too sweet. Light bodied with light carbonation. Pretty darn good, no surprise from Commonwealth.
