Notes

Soul Harvest Amber Ale: The Spirit of Halloween Brewed

As twilight deepens and shadows lengthen, raise a glass of the Soul Harvest Amber Ale, a brew conjured for the chilling nights of autumn. Pouring a hauntingly beautiful, deep amber with a ghostly head, this ale whispers tales of the season with every aromatic swirl.

A rich, malty spell is cast by Maris Otter, weaving a tapestry of caramel, toasted crust, and whispers of forgotten hearths. But beware, for hidden within this comforting base lies the mysterious essence of pumpkin, not as a sweet treat, but as an earthy, arcane note that grounds the brew in the ancient traditions of the harvest moon.

A coven of spices — cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and a hint of mischievous ginger — dance on the palate like spirits in the autumn wind, adding warmth and an intriguing complexity that will keep you guessing. With a balanced bitterness from Willamette hops and a potent 5.82% ABV, this ale is both a comforting companion and a spectral delight.

The Soul Harvest Amber Ale is more than just a beer; it's an invitation to embrace the eerie magic of Halloween, a potion to be savored by flickering candlelight as the veil between worlds thins. Drink deep, if you dare.
