The brewery: Two Roads Brewing Company, Stratford, Connecticut
Description (from the website): "Roadsmary’s Baby is a scary good pumpkin ale with a Two Roads spin, it’s aged in rum barrels for added complexity and depth of flavor. The result is a smooth drinking ale with notes of pumpkin, spices, vanilla, oak and a touch of rum."
Would I buy it again? This is a very mellow yet thick beer. You definitely get the vanilla and pumpkin, but they're pleasant notes rather than overpowering. Usually, barrel-aged beers are quite strong, but at 6.8% this beer is definitely not excessively alcoholic. Which is nice, actually, drinking a hefty beer like this without the unmistakable taste of alcohol itself. Honestly, not a bad choice for Halloween itself; I'd probably buy this again.
