Suamico, WI
What Our Editors Thought
“Brilliant reddish-copper color. Nose brings the traditional spice Kool-Aid with nutty banana bread—cinnamon and clove. Tangy flavor—again evoking banana and cinnamon—lightly sweet and lightly bitter, dries out nicely.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Vanilla, caramel, nutmeg, cinnamon nose. The ‘gourd’ aspect comes out in the flavor intermingled with rich caramel malt notes. Leaves a little spice on the tongue in the slightly sweet finish.”
What the Brewers Say
“Brewed with roasted pumpkin, pumpkin spices, vanilla beans, malts that mimic a pie crust.”
