can smell squash & butternut.  Had better aroma as it warmed, but initially something was off with the arom.  The flavor seems to go through 3 stages - the middle being astringent

head retention well, strong amber color, caramel honey aroma, slight banana aroma.  spice seems muttled with sweet honey/butterscotch flavor.  biterness/mat balance well, sweet but odd taste.  good beer well developed, but falls on complexity
