I was sick the first time I had this. It is a very good beer but way too much maple. I think this needs to be aged for a year to cut the maple done. Way too sweet fresh.

[bottled 06-29-2023] Rich, sweet, autumnal gourdness. The epitome of "imperial" yams.

First pumpkin of the year. The barrel adds a lovely character.

It’s way too sweet but the alcohol is hidden. Someone mentioned it tastes like a Manhattan and I can see that, almost like double fisting a Manhattan and an Oberon

Maple and pumpkin. Will this work? It does in this one!! The sweetness of the maple plays off the earthiness of the pumpkin. I really like this one.

This is great thanks Dad! Definitely sweet from the maple but can taste the spices and the barrel aged. Smooth for 13%!

Nice warm approach to a Fall with a nice rich barrel aged pumpkin ale.

This may be the worst pumpkin beer ever. I think taking a random beer off the shelf and adding pumpkin puree would be better.

Deeee-lightful! Wonderful blend of maple a pumpkin spices. Lovely bourbon character with vanilla notes. Seems like a new fall classic to me. A little boozy but it hides the ABV fairly well. It’s like grown-up pumpkin spice candy.

(Yesterday) Really yummy. Would be my perfect pumpkin brew if not for the lingering sugary sweetness. But great cinnamon bourbon flavor.

First pumpkin beer I’ve had and wow I must say I’m impressed! Smells of vanilla pumpkin bourbon oak and spices, taste follows suit the maple is kinda hidden I guess it’s there for sweetness? Great job Founders

This one is…sweet. Syrupy sweet. And boozy. Lots of flavors: cinnamon, vanilla, bourbon. At 13.1%, it was a bit much for me. But, it is an excellent take on the style.

Awful. It's 13.1% ABV, bitter, and tastes like a bottle of maple syrup. There was no note of pumpkin. I could only stomach one sip.
