Apple cider vinegar sports a greenish beige-white cap. Dino nuggets lacing recoils suddenly; tiger claw prints. Baked apple, cinnamon-sugar, nutmeg and clove pull the pie together. Not a think piece, just a good old fashioned slap face of seasonal spice, if slightly heavy handed on the finish. Deep and pointed, rich and spicy with a touch of jalapeño happening. Sparkly textures and spiky spice.

Mason Ale Works Bride of Dankenstein West Coast IPA
#Gasoline colored with a purple hint to a shock white head. Bears ears lacing melts to tentacles from the deep. Orange zest breads and carrot cakes nose meet candied grapefruit and limoncello. Round palate shows restraint, builds around the beer-ness a mandorla both bread-y and zesty with citrus melange exquisite. Its darkness is not the lead as it also shows a galactic shimmer. Incredible.

Brown ale brown tinged with red amber. Cream soda colored topping. Orange amber after the cloud break. Chunky casserole or ground beef in cartoon contrast lacing turns to logo eye dot and eyebrow. Owl last gasp and finally Punch’s nose shape. Rich scents of sassafras and nutmeg, cinnamon and allspice, sweet coffee and sweet roll. All of the aforementioned meld wonderfully on the palate, with a resonant mouth coat. This is great this year!! Excellent work. Captures the pumpkin and the season.

Applesauce gold opacity, with marshmallow over-puff hovering like egg white. Kidney pie lacing turns lattice cobbler. Sweet warm nose of lemon pie, white grapefruit and nano-mint, lotus root, ramen, lime, and pink grapefruit. Palate is lemon perfection, round pith, creamy lime, crystalline grapefruit, white pepper textural impression, candied lemon peel, and a cubist apricot. Amazing, rich, variegated, layered complexities, ever changing, alpha!

Abomination Brewing Company Toxic Earth DIPA brewed with local honey and Matcha

Grinch green from the matcha with a green tinged head. Lacing impossible. Kiwi, matcha, caterpillar tar, baked lemon, lime rind on the rhino. Candied lime peel, honeyed matcha and sage on the slug. Bursts of cartoon color on the melon. Associative, misleading and fun all around. Feel the toxins flee!

Epic Brewing Imperial Pumpkin Porter

Motor oil black. Inscrutable. Chocolate Milkshake head that looks like espresso creme. Knotted wood and sinewy beast lacing that sticks in low mountainous horizons and zygotic wigglers. Pyramid mound marks the dissolution. Cacao and allspice nose with vanilla hints entices. Cinnamon-chocolate palate brings brittles and caramels to a baked brown sugar. Delightful.

Nearly black in glass with no variation; blood when underlit. Nose shows rich black currant, cassis, licorice and espresso notes accented with violet and pecan; Black cherry and tobacco peek through cinnamon and nutmeg. Sensuous. Heavier mouthfeel shows focused blackberry, prune and mocha, coffee liqueur and vanilla bean, powerful tobacco and a soft cedar. Tannins well integrated, and resonance unparalleled with dark fruits washing like an ocean at night.

Grapefruit malty citrus nose with cinnamon and vanilla. Buttery Pineapple palate glowing with richness. Creamy mouthfeel stays consistent with the theme. Big, round and cloven.

Great pumpkin amber coloring with a decidedly orange hued pate. Lacy trim drops hearts and tiny pumpkins. Plenty of pumpkin on the nose accented by caramel apple and acorn squash. Cinnamon sticks allspice, mace and cloves dominate the palate, with cedar and oak forming the fiddle in the middle. Apple cider tangy on the finish. Just an intense and interesting Florida offering from Wesley Chapel. Fall gold,

Barely browning, otherwise complete tonally. Blood. Coffee rye nose nibbles black olive edges and oozes pouch tobacco. Devil’s food chocolate with corresponding moisture. Black cherry. Blackberry and boisenberry.smatter the graham cracker crust in the cedar bowl. Joyous purple flowers of every persuasion. Palate shows heat without being blowsy. Likely the product of concentrated licorice, black currant, cassis and tobacco, ax well as vanilla. Burnt flatbread, charred bbq tips, pencil scribbling that never quit and smoky rock.
