Who can resist the allure of chocolate, coffee and pumpkin spice? The beer makers at Mirror Twin doesn't think that anyone can as they develop a rich porter recipe for the bed of natural coffee flavors, roasted gourd and generous pumpkin spice additions.
Jack My Lantern lures in the nose with the enticing dessert aromas of cinnamon, ginger and clove along with the richer chocolate and robust coffee flavors that skirt just below. Hazy brown and layered with a scant broken froth, the beer's fall-like scents follow with a taste of toffee, caramel, toasted nuttiness and light praline before the pumpkin pie character govern the taste hereafter.
Sweetness lingers on the middle palate in support of the toasty, nearly roasty flavor of porter, but then the layers of seemingly sweet potato and pumpkin pie spice for a suggestion of pumpkin pie with a side of chocolate cake. Creamy with light nougat and a taste of heavy whipping cream come across like eggnog for better or worse.
Malty but drying slightly, the medium full porter trends modestly bitter with spice and woodsy hops that play delicately on the late palate. Eggnog lingers with those spices and for a character of white russian cocktail that carries a unique and milky pep all its own.
