Cigar City Good Gourd
Review
If you find a single bottle of Cigar City's Good Gourd, pick it up. The beer is a shining example of what pumpkin beers can be, and the taste holds up to expectations and hype. Taste wise, it’s more of a pumpkin bread beer than a pumpkin pie beer. It’s thick with flavor and low in carbonation, with brown sugar notes only slightly hiding the alcohol beneath. Allspice shines through, as does vanilla and nutmeg. This beer is a meal unto itself, and a must-try for both true lovers of pumpkin beers and true haters.
