Fat Orange Cat – Cautionary Tail Pumpkin Ale
One of the highest-rated pumpkin beers of the season, Cautionary Tail is an 8.0% ABV imperial-style pumpkin ale that emphasizes a rich malt backbone as much as the seasonal spices. Layers of caramel, toasted bread, brown sugar, chocolate, and toffee support flavors of pumpkin, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and clove, creating a full-bodied beer that remains remarkably balanced with its alcohol well hidden. Rather than being overly sweet or spice-driven, it drinks like a robust autumn ale with authentic pumpkin pie character.
