Chocolate, pumpkin, spice, and a beer that quietly turns into “night night juice” if you’re not paying attention. We’re kicking off fall seasonal beer season the way we actually live it: a little food talk, a little chaos, and two Ohio craft beers that taste like completely different versions of autumn.
First up is MadTree Harvest Brown, a brown ale with chocolate plus a full pumpkin-spice lineup. We dig into real tasting notes, not just “yep, it’s fall,” and we’re surprised by how much the chocolate and roasty malt lead the experience while the spices hang back in the background. Then life stuff takes over: long hours, heat exhaustion, and that weekend feeling where you want to get things done but your body says no.
From there we jump into Hell Let Loose Vietnam, a tactical shooter that’s more strategy than run-and-gun, and we talk roles, tutorials, and why the game feels so punishing at first. The conversation turns reflective with 9/11 memories and the eeriness of grounded flights and quiet skies, before we reset with our second pour.
Jackie O Barking Pumpkin brings bigger pumpkin flavor and a higher ABV, and we break down why it shines cold and gets harsher as it warms. We wrap with “this or that” cards, a near-death story, final ratings, and our reasons to drink this week. If you’re into pumpkin beer, brown ale, Ohio breweries, and unfiltered friend talk, hit subscribe, share it with a buddy, and leave a review. What’s your top fall beer right now?
