If it's pumpkin you came looking for, well you've come to the right place. Fat Jack pours mahogany brown and gives off a nice red hue when held up to the light. Two fingers of biscuit colored head gives off an impressive aroma of nutmeg, malt, and the advertised big orange gourd. The first sip reveals an intense bright creamy body followed by an enjoyable warming effect. Big flavor with notes of fall spices, fruit, caramel, and lots of pumpkin. Fat Jack is brewed with an impressive 28 pounds of pumpkin per barrel!!! Because sometimes, 27 pounds just isn’t enough. The pumpkin is most dominant during the mildly sweet floral finish.
Samuel Adams Fat Jack has a big pumpkin flavor and makes a nice boozy autumn treat. Available in 22 oz bottles, this brew boasts an impressive 8.5% ABV rating. Fat Jack is part of Samuel Adams limited release specialty beers. I've been very impressed with the few varieties I’ve tried so far from this series of unique brews. So if it's pumpkin you want, it's pumpkin you'll get with Fat Jack - the perfect warm up for a chilly autumn night.
Cheers.
