June 1997

This beer has overtones of both caramel and nuttiness, with hints of roastiness in the background, augmented by the lushness of two different kinds of Belgian candi sugar. Hops are very much in the background. Splitting the batch and employing two different yeast strains provides an interesting variation, with 1388 being notably the "cleaner" of the two and 3787 providing a richer complexity.
An Amber Ale, with pumpkin, honey, and cinnamon. This is a rich, smooth pumpkin ale with a nice sweetness and spiciness. It won third place in specialty fruit/spice beers two years ago in the Peach State Brew-Off in Georgia.

"The Ultimate Porter was created while looking for the perfect porter. I believe I have found it. I have brewed it four times now, and it is the perfect blend of hop aroma and dark bitterness."
