2008-10-XX. Dark amber brown body with a small off white head. Spicy aroma, prominent nutmeg. ( 7+ ) Sweet base, spice throughout, nutmeg is also prominent in the flavour and lingers pleasantly in the finish. Smooth medium bodied palate. ( 3+ ) Rather nice, I look forward to getting some more. 7+/3/7/3/15 - 3.5 Bottle at C’est What
July 2003. Orangey copper with a pumpkin pie aroma. Leans more towards the pumpkin pie spices than pumpkin itself. Very enjoyable. Will try it again. 6/3/6/3/14 - 3.2 Tmoney99 (4741), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA

Poured clear dark orange color with an average off-white frothy head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Solid spicy pumpkin pie aroma. Moderate body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium pumpkin spicy sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration.
Solid seasonal beer. Viper666 (622), Greenfield Park, Quebec, Canada

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 23, 2007 Bouteille. Couleur foncée, brune-cuivrée, claire, mousse mince s’estompant peu à peu. Arôme frais d’épices, cannelle, gingembre et muscade sont présent. Goût doux, mais bien épicé, légèrement malté, légèrement amer. Finale en pain d’épices. Corps un peu mince, effervescence moyenne. Intéressant et pas trop lourd contrairement à plusieurs bières aux épices. KnN (728), Greenbelt, Maryland, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 16, 2008 Definitely one of the better pumpkin beers I’ve had. Very subtly spiced, but the nutmeg and cinnamon hints are there. Smooth drinking, smells great! Nice little pumpkin kick as well. Cirrhosis (619), Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 26, 2009 Beautiful looking beer , coppery bright brown with a half inch pillowy cap. Cinnamon, clove and other spices come shining through. I most defiantly smell the pumpkin pie but no real raw pumpkin presence. Mmmmmm……cream cheese icing. Malty tasting with lots of spice the clove comes through stronger then cinnamon. There are hints of bitter in the finish. My wife claims to taste ginger snap and now that’s all I taste. This is by far the best pumpkin beer I’ve ever had.
