| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Nov 26, 2009 Generously spiced... and not like most other autumn beers that you can hardly separate from their year-round counterparts. Nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves were what I tasted from it. I liked it. lamas (726), Adams Morgan, Washington DC, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 12, 2009 Draft at Bowie location. Came to the table with a clear amber body and a skim of a light-tan head. The aroma featured moderate amounts of cinnamon and nutmeg along with some toasted toffee and caramel. Goes down thin to medium-bodied. Tastes about like it smells - malty upfront with caramel and some toffee. A touch dry and biscuity in the middle. A crisp finish with cinnamon and nutmeg. Very drinkable. CaptainCougar (5517), Rockville, Maryland, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 20, 2009 On tap at Fell’s Point (2/13/09): Pours a transparent amber mahogany with a stringy-lacing white head. Aroma of lightly sweet toasty caramel and nutmeg spice. Starts with good fullness and sweet caramel toffee notes well balanced with holiday spices before a clean bittersweet finish. A pretty good spiced beer. Lubiere (4547), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Feb 22, 2009 A dark reddish copper ale with a very thin white head. A nice caramel aroma with nice bananas and cloves, In mouth, a surprising mix of caramel and coconut, a bit cloying and oily. Medium bodied. On tap at Duclaw Baltimore, Dec. 29 2008.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 15, 2009 tap at Fells Pt location. Reminded me of a pumpkin lager I guess. Pours a clear deep copper-amber with a thin lasting head. Aroma is spicy nutmeg, cinnamon, all spice- pumpkin like but a bit skewed to a Christmas ale- a hint of ginger and pine needle- ok sweet toasty and light caramel malt backbone. Flavor is sweet caramel malts, toasty Vienna and Munich- slightly bready, and a nice not-too-intense spice kick throughout- cardamon, cinnamon, nutmeg allspice, etc. Ok nice smooth finish and pretty easy to drink. willblake (2182), Belcamp, Maryland, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 14, 2009 20090207 Tap at Bel Air location. Red amber color with small creamy head. Interesting use of spice makes this savory but with a light body -- not heavy or sweet like many spiced or pumpkin brews tend to be. Nice beer. illinismitty (1799), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
