Seventh Son The Wild Hunt

“Citrus-forward aromas with berries, Juicy Fruit gum, bread crust. Crisp malt bitterness, light bread-crust, orange, lemon in the flavor. Medium-light body. Sweet finish with a firm drying bitterness.”

**Aroma:** “There is a distinct character of age, with hints of tobacco, leather, and bubble gum. Very complex and very intriguing. Strong English earthy hops. Moderate plum, touch of cherry and chocolate. Slight nutty. Strong malt sweetness, heavy with caramel and toffee. Also sweet alcohol notes.” **Flavor:** “Moderate spicy hops, big earthy hops, touch of oral. Sweetness of toffee, caramel, and some chocolate add body to this beer. Slight vanilla. Some dark fruit/cherry notes add sweetness and complexity. The warmth of the alcohol helps to nish this beer leaving it slightly sweet, but not too sweet.” **Overall:** “A more hops-dominated complex old ale that could easily pass as a barleywine. Very avorful with sweet caramel and toffee. The warmth and hops earthiness helped to keep this beer in check and blended well.”

**Aroma:** “A smooth blend of pumpkin-pie spices (cinnamon, clove, nutmeg) and a rich, bready sweet caramel malt character (bordering on toffee) compete for dominance, with a pleasant note of fresh-baked pumpkins.” **Flavor:** “Deep malt sweetness comes through as caramelized brown sugar and toffee, supported by a very nice spice character with notes of clove, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Surprisingly balanced, considering the sweetness, thanks in part to the spice profile. Clean, crisp, warm finish with a slight lingering sweetness, but far from cloying. Definitely a big beer.” **Overall:** “This beer has a lot to offer—full-bodied, rich, and complex, with a very well designed spice profile that’s not too spiced nor too sweet. It all comes together well, and the warmth of the beer makes it bigger than most pumpkins. Big yet approachable.”
