Dry beer with clear notes of pumpkin and pie spice with an understated but definitely present drinking-vinegar tart edge. This is actually the kind of flavor I hope for whenever I try a pumpkin cider, but am usually disappointed by too much sweetness. Very well-balanced, with the only minus being a slightly unpleasant brett-funk aftertaste.
