Full bodied with pumkin and spice at the front, the middle and the back. Very good and heavy on the spice like I like it. Riccardi50 (13), Montreat, North Carolina, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 17, 2005 Draft at Knoxville Brewer’s Jam. Poured a murky iced tea color with a large tan head that quickly diminished. The aroma was of spices and nutmeg, maybe some slight roastedness. The flavor was unbelievable spices and malts. Medium body. I could easily see this one with a slice of pie after a Thanksgiving dinner! jrob21 (1271), Atlanta, Georgia, USA

The spice was true pumpkin and not overpowering. I love the special beers from here until the end of the year. SledgeJr (2966), Omaha, Nebraska, USA

Strong pumpkin pie aroma. Orange amber in color. Good cinnamon flavor with a surprising smoothness. I haven’t had a pumpkin ale this good since Adler-brau in Appleton. apost8n8 (123), Oklahoma, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 25, 2004 Best Pumpkin Ale ever. Most pumpkin ales just taste like their IPA brother with pumpkin extract but this had a flavor and complexity all its own. More than pumpkin pie in a glass. wilkie (1191), Raleigh, North Carolina, USA

Strong pumpkin with typical pumpkin pie type spices (ginger, clove, cinnamon, etc...). Full palate with good soft-sweet finish. Like pumpkin pie, a good dessert beer with a creamy body.
