Oct 18, 2007 Got this on a trade from mcox90. Poured a cloudy orange. Little head. Smell of Pumpkin, Nutmeg, maybe clove. One of the more bitter Pumpkin Ales I’ve had. Pumkin Ales are hit and miss. Not a bad example but not the best.

Oct 17, 2007 Light color and body wiht not much head. Odd spice aroma like burnt pie wiht some bitterness. Taste is sweeter than aroma. Some spices and pine. Not one of my pumps.

Oct 16, 2007 Cloudy brown/orange, thin light tan head. Nose is pumpkin pie spice - primarily nutmeg & clove. Also some other undefined spices and a slight sour twang. Flavor is strong spice - mostly nutmeg, some dry cinnoman, a hint of lemon, some malt. Spice dominated finish with too much nutmeg. Overall just way too much spice.

Oct 14, 2007 Bottle. Light copper color. Minimal head. Nice spicy aroma of pumpkins and spices. Quite refreshing, light, and drinkable. Doesn’t wow me with flavor, but shows the pumpkin novelty beer can be a very palatable, crisp tasting style. I’d buy this again for sure.

Oct 12, 2007 Clear orange amber with head that dissipates quickly but never fully goes away. Nose has a balanced complex spice aroma. The spices and pumpkin flavor are in the forefront, but the hops and malt are present as well. Body is more on the thin side but enjoyable considering the crisp/dry/refreshing finish. Great on tap as well. This can be a fine fall session beer. Pumpkin ales are usually either weak ambers with some spice and pumpkin or very spicy/pumpkin/creamy imperials. This beer bridges the gap.
