Draught at the brewpub. Pours a clear deep amber with a small creamy off-white head. Nice aroma has just the right amount of pumpkin and spices, backed by sweet malt. Flavour of pumpkin and spices, slightly mild, along with sweet malt. Average bodied. Pretty good.

2009-11-17. Dark amber body with a modest beige head. 3+ Aroma is mild, light vanilla? Spice? Touch of fruit character. 6+ Flavour is similar, light fruit and spice, mild supportive malt base. Alcohol is not noticable at first but comes out a bit as it warms. Average palate is smooth. On tap at the brewpub

Draught. At the brewpub. Clear bright copper with a decent lasting off-white head. Aroma of sweet caramel and pumpkin spice, not at all vegetal. Also tastes of quite sweet roast caramel and pumpkin pie spices, with wheat, banana and some dry floral bitterness. Soft mouthfeel, astringency from the pungent spicing, mild carbonation, and a dry spicy linger - I quite liked the aroma, a pleasant pumpkin beer.

On tap at the brewpub. Nice copper body with ruby glints and a thin off-white creamy head. Well balanced malty/hoppy aroma with pumpkin and cinnamon hints. Good malty taste with spicy and hoppy notes. Ends with a decent bittersweet finish.

A hazed reddish amber with a thin off white head. In aroma, sweet cinnamon, with light pumpkin pie spices. In mouth, sweet malt with cinnamon and nutmeg, very mineral hops in finale. Medium bodied. On tap at brewpub, Oct. 18 2009.
