Draft at Taco Mac. Pours amber and clear. The aroma has a pumpkin spice quality with some neutral malts and a light graininess. The flavor follows the aroma: spicy, grainy, lightly malty. The finish is crisp, but a bit watery. The mouthfeel is light in body and crisply carbonated. Overall - perhaps a decent session beer, but rather plain.

Dec 9, 2009 Somewhat lively clear pumpkin orange with a medium off-white head that leaves a ring of lace. Aroma of ripe pumpkin, nutmeg, cinnamon and malt, strongly spiced overall. Taste of cinnamon and nutmeg, burnt malt and very mild pumpkin. A touch aqueous and kind of bland, except on the finish where I get a spice tongued aftertaste.

Nov 23, 2009 Bottle, Rehills, Newcastle. Didn’t know what to expect from this, not having sampled pumpkin before. Spice is subtle but detectable in the nose and on the back of the throat. Soft bitterness and a slight sharp fruit flavour, a mixture of many things with no one character really standing out.

Nov 21, 2009 ( 12oz bottle) Clear amber/orange with no head. Nose of pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg. Taste is oddly bitter, unsweetened pumpkin, and the linger if off. I didn’t like this example of the style at all.

Nov 14, 2009 24th May 2008. Dry semi sweet malty beer with well integrated pumpkin fruitiness. Spice is subtle which gives it an edge on a lot of other pupkin beers!

Nov 6, 2009 12oz bottle from total wine and more in atlanta. clear darker orange pour with a sturdy white head. big earthy aroma of pumpkin spices. ugh... taste is sweet pumpkin funk. creamy medium texture with no carbonation makes it even tougher to choke down. I’m not a huge herb brew fan to begin with and this didn’t change that.

Nov 6, 2009 12 oz bottle, pours an orange-amber color with minimal head. Aroma is very sweet with pumpkin, caramel, malt, and spice. Flavor is very sweet but well balanced out by spices and bitterness. Palate is full and moderately rough. Good complex flavor and very easy to drink.

Nov 3, 2009 Pours a clear dark amber with off-white head and a lot of carbonation. Smells of spice, clove, nutmeg, and malt. Tastes is rather light of pumpkin spice and is not too sweet. A pumpkin pie taste takes shape as it warms up. Some hop bitterness and crispness on the finish. I’m not much of a pumpkin ale fan but this one is surprisingly drinkable.
