Dec 1, 2008 Not the best pumpkin beer ever created, but still a good taste. Aroma of pumpkin pie. Flavor of pumpkin pie. Maybe a bit over-done on the spices, but still drinkable.

Nov 21, 2008 Bottle via JB. Orange in color, this light colored brew has a slightly spicy aroma. Low malt, heavily spiced, with a light hop bite near the end. This is an easy drinking. Light pumpkin beer that is pretty good.

Nov 19, 2008 (bottle - 12 oz) Orange/copper in color with a fizzy and puffy white head. Aroma is very spicy. Lots of cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and pumpkin dominate. Flavor is sweet and spicy. Some pumpkin flavor, but tons of pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg underneath. Has a bit of a creamy flavor near the end with a final push of the spices. Very nice and sweet.

Nov 19, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy orange with a moderate off-white head that disappeared after the first sip and left just a few spots of lace. Mild aroma of pumpkin and malt with no spice on the nose. The flavor is again mild with malt and pumpkin and no spices to speak of. A bit watered down and lacking in body.

Nov 18, 2008 Bottle: Pours an orange color with good clarity and a strong off white head. The aroma is fairly fresh-some bread crust/pale malts, soft spices of clove, cardamom, and a touch of sweet pumpkin pie like aspect. Fairly light carbonation. A bit sweet with a butterscotch note enveloped in mild clove and cardamom, which predominate. Some toasted malt suggestions come through later on. It’s apparent that the base lager is solid and clean, with a decent spice character added. Not bad.

Nov 2, 2008 Pours a deep amber with small white head. Aroma of pumpkin pie spices. Flavor had a decent pumpkin taste with a good kick of cinnamon, nutmeg. A good malty pumpkin backbone combined with the spices made for a crisp and satisfying beer.

Oct 23, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a dark gold, with a decent off-white head. Lots of tiny little bits of stuff floating about. No lacing. Aroma is fairly nasty...like a bad aftershave. You can discern some spice, but whatever it is, it isn’t pleasing. Flavor is fairly flat, with some pumpkin (fresh pumpkin not pumpkin pie), maybe a bit of cinnamon, and some pepper. Palate is light-medium body, with a bit of spritz. Finishes slightly bitter and dry. Not particularly refreshing. Overall this was an interesting beer, but a disappointment for me.
