madvike (301), Madison, Wisconsin, USA Nov 4, 2009 Bottle - Clear amber pour with a small white head. Smells of sharp pumpkin pie spice--maybe allspice or nutmeg. There’s nothing smooth about it--it’s aggressive and harsh. Taste is the same, but sour, with a slightly hoppy and spicy finish. I don’t taste the pumpkin, but it doesn’t matter--this stuff is nasty. DragonStout (1380), Pataskala, Ohio, USA Oct 24, 2009 A typical pumpkin beer.Pumpkin pie aroma with a pumpkin pie flavor.The body was definately lager like, but nothing special here phaleslu (427), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Oct 20, 2009 12 oz. bottle from Ludlow Wines. Pours mostly clear copper, slightly cloudy, with almost no head. Aroma of nutmeg, cinnamon, citrus, pumpkin. Flavor is a weaker version of that- somewhat watered down with a really light body. Thin mouthfeel, cinnamon/nutmeg finish. Could be better if the flavor matched the aroma. jport4087 (73), Pennsylvania, USA Oct 7, 2009 This beer is ok. Some pumpkin in the aroma. Copper color. Flavor of sweet citrus and some spice. Little pumpkin. A bit astringent as it finishes. Good not great. arkurzynski (89), West Bend, Wisconsin, USA Oct 2, 2009 Pours pale orange. Aroma is sweet and spicy, almost too much so. Initial impression was good. As I continued to drink, however, started to taste artificial sweet and syrupy. Had difficuly finishing. Doon (89), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Sep 22, 2009 I’m NOT a lager guy.....but I AM a pumpkin guy... This beer is nice! It’s got the pumpkin flavor I want, not too spicy, not too thick....nice bubbly zing on the tongue.. Pours a hazy and almost amber color. Little head that dissipated immediately. Sweet spice aroma, but not very heavy... Light lager taste with hints of pumpkin and spice....very refreshing! My new favorite lager! Sparky27 (1559), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Sep 22, 2009 Bottle. Pours slightly hazy amber with a half finger off-white head. The nose is spicer than the Michelob Jacks I just had. Pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg and malt. The taste s spicer also and follows suit with the aroma. This will never be mistaken for Southern Tier Pumpking, but not a bad overall. bp (451), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 20, 2009 Bottle: pours a semi-hazy dark copper color with a thin white head, aroma is heavy on the spice, taste is mildly spiced, fairly thin mouthfeel, decent.
