Apple juice and antique gold had a baby. Lively head in a rocket blast. Grainy ghoul forest lacing. Lemon, orange and creamy vanilla and lemon panna cotta. Lemongrass and a twist of basil. Palate has a creamy cinnamon and nutmeg, but holds it together in a cream soda meets hops sort of way. Much better than it sounds. This beer gets it right in every way. Balanced, spiced to the ginger gills, and beer-tastic in its taste. True to beer and pumpkin pie spice. Haunting finish.

Powering through the last of the oak beers on the way to wine immersion. On a positive note, the baby now has a room! Anyway, last year’s Good Gourd! Looks like dark tea or a hot cider, nice eruption of bubbling magic. Orange tinged; good start! Super spiced cinnamon apple, caramel, vanilla, nutmeg, and oddly smelling of a California wine. Sierra foothills mascarpone notes and also a hot buttered rum smell. Cinnamon tea, clove studded orange, whiskey-lemon-honey tea, toasted coconut, sweet tobacco, brown sugar, dates, fruitcake candied notes with a nod to its density. A cream soda finish with raisinets. #cigarcitybrewing #cigarcitygoodgourd #goodgourd #imperialale #ale #beer #bier #biere #birra #imperialpumpkinale #pumpkinale #pumpkinbeer #ccb #halloweenbeer — 5 years ago
