Avery, Rumpkin – Avery Brewing Co. Boulder, CO.
15.9% ABV Pumpkin Ale aged in Goslings Rum barrels. 12oz bottle.
A: Soft head – loose bubbles that fades fast. Very dark brown almost like a class of whiskey. Great legs low lacing.
S: Pumpkin pie! Soft hints of spices, nutmeg, cinnamon, mixed with subtle pumpkin. Sweet richness is on the forefront with a dense booziness on the backend but it’s masked with the creamy nose.
T: Pumpkin pie made with rum! Minor spices throughout the palate with huge rich sweetness that coats the palate like a warm coat. Pumpkin flavors are present but blend very well with the sweetness. Strong rum flavors dominate the finish and warm the chest but the booziness, actual alcohol is well hidden while cold.
M: Very full bodied – almost a stout in feel. Moderate carbonation but this beer weighs heavy on the palate.
O: Incredible Pumpkin Ale and uber rare. 15.9% = Just under 4 beers in 1. This is made for pumpkin beer fans, rum lovers, and those that enjoy rich beer. This is a sipper made for Winter.
