Our Tastes-- Good Gourd


Good Gourd, is a fantastic Imperial pumpkin offering from Cigar City. I'm admittedly one of those "gobble up all things pumpkin" this time of year. Shipyard is a standard, Schlafly, BlackStone (of course), DFH Punkin (damn those hand made growlers!) This one pours an awesome deep amber with a sweet nose that explodes of Yankee Candle company pumpkin pie! The taste of the special spices is truly incredible. Made with Ceylon cinnamon, Jamaican all-spice, Zanzibar cloves and nutmeg; it gives me the feeling of having pumpkin brew on a Caribbean island as it warms with a hint of pirate rum and smooth vanilla. Part of the Alfalfa and "mole-vision" Babs Bootleg train, I only wish I had sprung for a growler!
