Into a snifter, at the tap room. Pours a dark brown black with not quite enough khaki head...decent lacing. Nose is good...coconut up front and on the end...in between an edge of burnt marshmallow, vanilla, pumpkin spice. Not super layered, but still good. Taste follows. Was hoping it would be a bit more creamy or thick, but the mouthful is still smooth, with the spice making things interesting.

Crowler. Tan head. Lace. Black color.
Coconut shoes the most then vanilla and spice. The pumpkin shows the least which I like. Chocolate stout goodness. Very enjoyable. So basic.

Your basic pumpkin stout. Nice creamy lacing. Not picking up much of a smell. Flavor of pumpkin and vanilla quickly taken over by pumpkin pie spices. Not detecting coconut. Mouthfeel not very smooth. Heavy carbonation presence. Decent seasonal brew.
