Wow. Big boozy sweetness with lots of barrel and maple syrup with notes of cinnamon and nutmeg. Straight booze breath when you exhale. Cheers

Good overall review… because it’s a BA Founders concoction? Hope you *love* allspice and cloves, because you’ll get a shit ton of that soaked in some boozy booziness. I generally like autumn spice forward beers, but this too much.

First pumpkin beer of the year…again I’m early to drink these, but close enough! Nose is lots of nutmeg with a hefty boozy barrel. Flavor is more balanced than expected. Pumpkin spices with sweet maple and bourbon. Smooth and flavorful.

Was excited for this, but sadly, not what I was expecting. Doesn't really taste like pumpkin spice. I can taste the maple, but then it tastes like star anise. Was hoping for more cinnamon and nutmeg.

Nice sweet fall beer. I bought at Horrocks in Lansing.

Founders is just good at beer. Complex layers of cinnamon, nutmeg followed by the boozy maple bourbon taste. Well done

This may be my favorite "pumpkin" fall beer. Maple comes through the most but still light. The spices and barrel all balance out smoothly

I like it. One of the better pumpkin ales I’ve had, actually. Nice full flavor at 57 degrees. It should be interesting to see how it is as it warms.

I was hoping for a little more from this. People mention “great pumpkin taste” and “balanced” but I disagree. I’m getting too much barrel, accentuated by tons of maple and a little clove. As a pumpkin beer lover, the pumpkin gets drowned out for me.

Weird aroma. Allspice forward. Not much of an improvement on pumpkin spice. Meh, for me.

I'm pretty sure no beer was involved in the making of this...uh...beer. So. Boozy. It's probably just straight-up bourbon.

LCI. 13.1% ABV BBA Imperial Yam Beer. Maple and bourbon barrel add some nice flavors to this lightly boozy brew. Pumpkin and spices are also there.

You can’t miss the bourbon. You get the maple sweetness but not much pumpkin

It is sooooo strong. It has a super boozy flavor that overpowers almost all the other flavor. I detect a hint of chocolate though.
