| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 17, 2007 Orange/amber color with a diminishing head white head. Aroma of spice-cloves and pumpkin pie. Flavor is holiday spice and pumpkin with a little malt and no hops that I noticed. It is mainly sweet with a little bitterness - straddles the edge of being too sweet, but doesn’t cross the line. Its a little one-dimensional with the spicy pumpkin flavor. It needs some more complexity and the other ingredients need to make more of an appearance.
