Dec 11, 2009 Can. Clear copper-amber. There is a whiff of pumpkin in the aroma. Smells a little like honey too. Not hoppy. Almost no head. Ok carbonation. Taste is mildly sweet with very mild hop flavour. Very easy to drink but no remarkable qualities otherwise.

Nov 23, 2009 Pours a clear copper color. There is an aroma of pumpkin and spices. Great pumpkin pie taste, although it is a bit too watery. A pretty good pumpkin ale.

Nov 1, 2009 Freshly canned from Central City Brew pub. Pours copper-orange, with off-white head. Smell is earthy pumpkin, light cinnamon, cloves and allspice, caramel. Flavor is a subtle balance of the aromas with more biscuity notes. Body is quite light with some resin. I think this was a smart choice for a seasonal pumpkin ale that is just complex enough for connaisseurs but light enough not to scare off the masses. Kudos to the brewers, but based on the greatness of their Imperial IPA, I would love to see them do an Imperial pumpkin.

Oct 29, 2009 Light pumpkin aroma. Pours a clear copper with thin lacing. Light pumpkin taste with trace of cinnamon and trace of cloves. Lingers reasonably in the finish without being brash or overdone. Reasonably well crafted beer from a style that I admittedly have issues with. Certainly better than the Granville Island pumpkin offering.

Oct 28, 2009 Red Racer Pumpkin Ale: Sweet and spicy aroma of pumpkin and cinnamon. Clear copper coloured body is topped by a shy off white head that recedes to a partial cover. Flavour is quite sweet with some toasted malt character and a fair bit of pie-like spicing. Sweetness lingers with no bitterness to take the edge off. Medium light body is somewhat watery in texture. Tulip glass. Just above fridge temperature. Can purchased at Brewery Creek in Oct-09.

Nov 1, 2008 Aroma of pumpkin pie, taste of pumpkin pie but also of beer. It finishes both crisp, full bodied, and spiced. Much less liqueur-like than Steamworks’ effort.
