Pours like an IPA, deep copper with a finger thick light tan head. Nose is a bit subtle with pumpkin spice and sweet fruits. Same in the flavor, with a definite Belgian like spice note. Medium full mouthfeel.

Dec 24, 2009 Pours a transparent bronze orange with light carbonation and a thin spotty lacing white head. Aroma of nutmeg, toasty caramel and some clove spice with a hint of pumpkin. Body starts with pretty good fullness and holiday spice along with some toasty caramel malty sweetness and pumpkin flavor before a drier spiced slightly warming finish. A decent pumpkin ale.

Dec 24, 2009 while aroma is wafting and expected from a pumpkin beer, this guy has some thin flavor. Hardly any spices are noticeable, really just slight pumpkin and a lot of alcohol. Even though it is more candyish, I prefer the regular Shipyard Pumkinhead. Bottle at Stop and Shop next to Titanic in Miami.

Dec 22, 2009 (Bottle) Pours orange with a small off-white head. The aroma is spicy and light fruity with notes of sweet cinnamon, vanilla, light spicy nutmeg, mild ginger, pumpkin, mango and oranges. Almost no hop and malt tones, maybe some wheat crackers and spicy grass in the background. Hits of mint and caramelized almonds. The nose is surprisingly clean. The flavour is light to medium sweet and light bitter with tones of cinnamon, pumpkin, dry malt and hints of hops. The fruity and spicy notes are in good harmony. The mouthfeel is clean with a crisp, medium carbonation. The finish is fruity and spicy with a notable (warming) alcohol sting. Medium bodied. This might be the cleanest beer from shipyard so far (still a whisper of butterscotch present). Nice but simple. Mmm... Cinnamon roll!

Dec 15, 2009 Bottle. Pours a red-orange liquid with almost no head. Aroma is sweet and spicy with notes of cinnamon, marzipan and a bit eucalyptus. Taste is quite sweet with some alcohol, pumpkin and spices. Drinkable, but not very good.
