Evil Twin Brewing, New York City ‘Our most popular Pumpkin Ale’

Apple cider colored verging on hazelnut. Strawberry blonde head with browned butcher paper accents. Hog snout expansive lacing leaves Templar chain hood closing eye slit to rudimentary Pac-Man ‘Inky’. Nose of cinnamon roll, sweet potato and baked pumpkin. Palate is perfect mouthfeel, with green apple notes followed by cinnamon toothpick, allspice, nutmeg brown sugar and caramel. Pecan and filbert entertain in the finale! Bravo! This one will put a goofy grin on your face, and light a candle in your heart!

Fat Orange Cat Cat-O-Lantern
Imperial Brown Ale

Coffee black belly; Latte summit. Bag-o-bones lacing includes crocodile skulls Alosaurus spines, falcons and equine bits. Fades to black fast. Rich coffee-mocha nose has chicory and chit scent chunks and chips. Burnt brownie and brown sugars. Coffee continues on the palate with cinnamon and nutmeg and a green streak of allspice with maple. Deep and raisin-y. Chocolate and chili!

Timber Ales ‘Fields of Fall’ imperial Stout

Nearly headless, dark cocoa pate with rapid bubble breakdown. Candlewax serpents dripping lacings over oily trails leave one-eyed bunny trace. Solid black across and through. Glass stainer. Nose of roasted pumpkin, roasted coffee, black strap molasses, dark cocoa nibs, roasted chestnut. Heavy mouthfeel mimics the molasses smell, and gives toffee and Turkish coffee impressions. Initial taste bitters quickly, but subsequent tastes are coated in treacle. Pumpkin and spice give this a perceptively plump middle. The finish is forever. Mwahahaha!

Fat Orange Cat Cautionary Tail Pumpkin Ale. North Haven, CT

Brown and flinty orange body has a coffee with cream head that loosely rises. Drawn and quartered lacing has bubble eyed ghosts and barn owl faces in an appropriate nod. Warm and cozy comfort spices rise from sweet potatoes, maple syrup, brown sugar and butter cauldrons, while spider eyes blink and pop on a wisp of fog as stringy as Spanish moss. The head is gone like the last gasp of an autumn tree, and the gourd ascends. Cinnamon sticks and nutmeg creak in the vestiges of twilight. Only darkness now. Roasted pecan, burnt brown sugar, toffee and treacle, crowned by a full moon scoop of vanilla cream.

Tropical with banana and pineapple shows ginger and lemon curd, nutmeg and light cinnamon. Whoa! Big pumpkin here with rich and creamy pie spices; vanilla, allspice, nutmeg, clove, cedar, oak, candied ginger, ginseng, lemongrass. Good move making it milkshake! Lactose drives the density and comforting substance. More like this please! And to the pumpkin hating zealots, just taste the forbidden fruit again, I won’t tell!
