Boo-Berry Pumpkin Spice Latte

◎ Appearance

Very pale straw yellow with excellent clarity and a delicate, fine-bubbled head that settles to a thin collar. The low color intensity (5 SRM) reflects the light adjuncts and minimal Malz contribution. Carbonation appears moderate and well-integrated, creating a soft, ephemeral foam structure.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with jammy blueberry and subtle vanilla notes that evoke a spiced dessert. Warming spice—cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger—emerges cleanly without harshness, supported by a creamy dairy undertone from the lactose and oats. The sour character is restrained and integrated, offering fruit-forward aromatic complexity rather than sharp acidity.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and approachable, with blueberry jam and vanilla sweetness balanced by gentle sour acidity that rates 2 on the Sour Scale. Mid-palate develops warming spice notes and a creamy mouthfeel from oats and lactose, creating a latte-like texture. Bitterness is nearly absent (10 IBU), allowing the fruit, spice, and sweetness to dominate throughout.

◑ Finish

Medium-length finish with lingering vanilla, gentle spice warmth, and subtle tartness that fades smoothly. No harsh or astringent aftertaste; the 8% ABV sits comfortably in the background without heat.
