Brewed From the Taps @ Sean Patrick’s

Harvest Pumkin Blue Moon

Fall is a season of change. Leaves change color, temperatures (hopefully) cool down, and I change my opinion on Blue Moon brewing company. I’ve always enjoyed their beers to a certain extent, but they have always seemed like a middle of the road brewery. Not so with their fall seasonal Harvest Pumpkin Ale, a rich flavorful brew with effervescent notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and of course pumpkin. It’s like eating a fresh pumpkin pie on your grandmother’s porch while watching the leaves fall, but you know, better. Cause its beer. ABV- 5.7%

Rates a 5 out of a 6 in a pack.

Alibi

Circle Brewing Co. From our friends at Austin’s own Circle Brewing comes Alibi, a thick and rich mutt of a beer. Touted as a cross between the German Mai Bock and American Blonde Ale, this is definitely a sipping beer. The heavy mouth feel is Rates a 3 offset a bit by a light, citrusy flavor that works well with the out of a 6 in hop flavors present. With that a pack. in mind I’m not a huge fan of this beer. It’s too sour, a bit too thick, and you really get way more blonde than bock. Not really bad, but there are definitely beers more deserving of your attention. Bar: Slacker’s, Harper’s & Veranda Brews rated by ABV- 4.3%
