Nov 18, 2008 Tallahassee, Fl. - New Leaf Market - 22 oz bomber. Dark orangeish copper pour, glinty with a slight bubbly white head. Spicy aroma with some pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon. Flavor is full-bodied and delicious. Find some nutmeg, pumpkin pie spice, and a bit of ripening vegetables. Very well done. Crisp, even mouthfeel. Enjoyed this one - appear to be the only one!.

Nov 18, 2008 Slightly hazy ,light brown ale, with a huge,wonderful, tight bubbly head..light tan in colour.
Spicy aroma, some pumpkin in the malts.
Very malty, non sweet ,spiciness, pumkin shows through.Sometimes I get some "banana" esters..this is verging on a Belgian ale in spots, but quickly calms down to a good pumkin ale.
Good mouthfeel, maybe a wee bit under carbonated for style.
I liked this one and fouind it quite drinkable.

Dec 15, 2008 Pours a beautiful amber/orange. Smells like spice, cinnamon and nutmeg. One of the better pumpkin ales, Rich taste, full bodied ale.

Nov 27, 2008 Bottle from South Bay Drugs. There is a mild aroma of spice, ginger bread, pumpkin and burnt malt accompanied by a background a orange rice or pistachio? Color is a medium orange with thin layering of foam. The flavor is bland with minor tastings of pumpkin and the holiday spice associated with it. Not as impressive as I had thought it be.

Dec 7, 2008 Bottle from the Coop in Davis, CA. Bright copper color with a slight beige head. Aromas of spice and mild caramel. Medium body with frothy/creamy carbonation. Rather astringent. Spicey. Strongly spiced and so astringent it’s like bitter. Pumpkin is there, but spice rules.

Nov 28, 2008 Glowing hazy amber but little head. Slightly smokey, burnt, vegetal pumpkin, not really spicy in the aroma. Thin but quaffable mouthfeel. Strange residue of char, almost burnt. Nutmeg bitterness. Lacking cinnamon. Also lacking smoothness, roundness, and complexity.

Dec 5, 2008 22oz bottle.
Poured a medium and slightly hazy orange color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of pumpkins and spices -cinnamon, nutmeg, and others-. pices on the heavier side. Tastes of pumpkins and the same spices. I would say this one was definitely leaning on towards the spices vs. the pumpkin although the pumpkin was present. This one also had a light tart and sour finish.
