light amber with a small disappearing white head. big pumpkin pie spice aroma with a hint of pumpkin. flavor sweet malty pumpkin with a hint of spice. spice really kicks in on the finish. light to medium bodied with moderate carbonation. this would be my favorite pumpkin ale available in this area.

12oz. Bottle: Aroma of pumpkin, nutmeg, and a little malt. Nice scent. Poured dark amber/orange in color with small, off-white head that diminished very quickly. Hazy and sparkling. Tastes of pumpkin, cloves, nutmeg and cinnamon. A little musty initially, but nice spice finish. Lots of clove. Light body. Thin, watery texture. Soft carbonation. Overall, not that good. Tastes like a pumpkin cider rather than a beer.

Aroma of pumpkin spices with a slight yeastiness. Body is a bit watery with a strong spice finish. Flavor is thin with a slight cinnamon bite and a lack of any discernable pumpkin.

12 oz- Light orange with an off-white bubbly head. Spicey aroma but flavor of a smoked beer. Just OK

Bottle. copper colored, very little head. Aroma is of spice, clove, pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg. Not much hop aroma. Not a bad tasting ale, malty, just enough pumpkin flavor, and very little hop presence. More spice flavor than anything. Worth trying.

Pours with almost no foam. Thin amber color. Aroma of faint pumkin and spice. Tastes like apple cider and cinnamon. Not particularly inspiring.

12 oz bottle. Pretty beer - crystal clear orange/amber with a big, fluffy white head that reduces quickly to a 1/8" veil that never leaves. Lots of bubbles in this one! Spicy nose (allspice), pumpkin, sweet malt. Somewhat short in the body department - thin, watery, lively bubbly mouthfeel - kinda like selzer water. Decent spice and flavor that match the nose, trailing allspice finish. Fair.

so it might not be very hoppy or even carbonated but the spicy aroma and the overall flavor work for what its trying to do. i just needed some whipped cream to top it off, would buy again.
