Jan 9, 2006 brownish color thin tan head w/ ok lacing. Aroma is spiced nutmeg & cinamon hints of pumkiny smell and a bit warm alcohol. Palate is nicely carbonated fairly well coated. Flavor has a light smoked flavor to it nice carmel malt hints of pumkin pie filling, nutmeg and cinamon. Pretty decent stuff.

Jan 9, 2006 Clear coppery brown. Thin head. Nice spicy aroma... nutmeg/pumpkin based and light scotch whisky flair and a slight citrus edge. Nice balanced spice/citrus/sweet body... some nutmeg/pumpkin, slight orange, and brown sugar. Good stuff!

Jan 9, 2006 Clear brown body, thin tan head. Varied but enjoyable flavor: brown sugar, mint, coriander, pine needles. The flavor has light brown sugar malt under orange peel, coriander, and nutmeg-like spice. The orange lends a refreshing fruitiness to the beer. Quite nice, the mouthfeel is a bit thin though.

Jan 9, 2006 Has a dark amber color, with a thin layer of brown head. Aroma is malty. Has a kind of roast, almost burnt flavor. Kind of a thin body, wittle little carbonation. Overall, it’s OK, but nothing special.

Jan 9, 2006 Trade via MullMan. (freebie). The beer pours to a dark amber body with a thin whitish head. The color looks real nice, but there isn’t much else there. The aroma smells like a pumpkin beer. Weird. I was expecting a spiced ale (for XMas). The beer’s flavor is malty with a fully rich and creamy mouthfeel but has this weirdness to it on the finish. Has some melanoids in it. Caramel and toasted malts. Lightly spicy. Gingerbread. I don’t mind the flavor. It’s just that it smells like one thing, is listed as another, and tastes like yet another. Pretty basic if you ask me.
