    Well hello and welcome back! :)

    I'm not surprised that the brown sugar didn't really present itself.
    I think I've only tried something similar once, maaaybe twice.
    It was Lagunitas Sucks by ... um... Lagunitas, lol.

    But, here's my reviews of that beer (once as I opened the first one, another when opening beer #3):
    So, what I'm saying is... I feel ya.


    Also, I thought that 58 Ounce Porterhouse sounded good from Backshore, but I'm guessing maybe not so much.
    Not surprised the Walnut Pecan Stout was good though, sounds awesome!

    Ah yes... the Lil Sumpin.
    Apparently all I said about it when I tried it was that it was a hoppy beer.
    (I like it better when I give more descriptive.. m.. descriptions.)

    Like this one, for the beer I'm drinking tonight (Otter Creeks Backseat Berner):

    The porterhouse was a big disapointment. Great beer all around but has a smokey flavor that ruins it.
    Maybe paired with some bbq or smoked whitefish it might not be bad or maybe if i smoked. But smoke flavor is not what i look for in a beer.

    Nope, not beeradvocate.
    But I am on Untappd.

    Also, that Elysian pumpkin beer is awesome!
    Here's my review from when I first tried it:

    I'm really glad I started doing it.
    In the forum where I've made most of my reviews, I have a separate thread listing them all chronologically, by page.
    So now I can easily go back and see if I've tried something already and what I thought of it.

    It's come in handy a few times. :)

    Right on.

    I think it's the best pumpkin beer I've had yet.
    Maybe some room for improvement (been awhile since I had it), but I can't remember anything else that was as tasty without getting to be too much.

    As of tonight, I'm hitting up the seasonal pumpkin beers again.
    Tonight's fuel isn't as good as the Elysian Night Owl, but it is a decent brew.
    Not that I'm surprised, since it's by River Horse.

    Smells like: There's a faint spiced pumpkin smell on top of what smells like a wheat beer.
    The more I smell it, the more the pumpkin comes across.
    But it doesn't smell like it'll be over-powering at all.
    Enough bottle sniffing, let's drink!

    Tastes like: Very calm and understated.
    It tastes like a standard beer with good body, but with something lurking beneath.
    That lurking flavor resolves into a vague pumpkin pie type of taste in the tail end, as it fades out.

    Overall, not a standout pumpkin offering.
    However, it is a good tasting beer with decent body.
    It's also not bitter or tangy, even if slightly metallic in the mid-range.

    Something like that and I also can't find the image box thingy on here to paste it in.

    I would like to file a formal complaint about this
