Oct 16, 2006 12 oz- Pours a hazy orange-brown with a nice tan head. Not a big fan of hoppier beers, this one is not for me. A little bitter and more hop flavor than pumpkin spices.

Oct 14, 2006 12 oz bottle-Pours a nice cloudy orange color w/a moderate foamy head. Has a distinctive spiced aroma. Good looking beer, good smelling beer, not a good tasting beer, at least not to me. Does have a distinctive Pumpkin flavor which I didn’t find very enjoyable. Crisp & clean w/a lot of carbination, but just found it to be a very odd flavor combination. Sharp pumpkin flavored hops?? Not a lot of balance, seemed to have a soapy or medicinal aftertaste, would be better if it had some kind of sweet or bitter finish. This was my first Pumpkin Ale, wanted to keep an open mind @ it & try one, this will likely be my last.

Oct 12, 2006 looks nice with a nice head, spicy aroma, same overly heavy spicy taste, a bit bitter, a decent brew i just think these pumkin beers have a bit to much spice in the flavor

Oct 12, 2006 From a 12 oz. long neck brown bottle with a best before date along the left side of the label, Jan/07.
Poured a hazy pumpkin orangey golden with a foamy off-white head that settled into a thin bubbly lacing, small amount of laced sticking.
Aromas of pie spices, pumpkin flesh and a light sweet maltiness.
Good carbonation and a malty crisp, smooth medium bodied mouthfeel.
Tastes of pie spices and pumpkin, not pie filling-like, but raw pumpkin, a nice earthy sweet maltiness and a dryish spicy, malty finish.
A really nice pumpkin ale, one of the better ones I’ve had this fall.

Oct 12, 2006 Well done. Clean, crisp with solid pumpkin flavor. Spices are not overdone. I would prefer a bit more hops. Not as good as dfh pa but not as expensive either.

Oct 12, 2006 (Bottle (best before 12/06) from Glen Beverage (NH)) Full of pumpkin-pie spiciness...Pours rather hazy yellowish amber with about 2 fingers of biscuit head. Aroma fairly spicy - nutmeg and other pumpkin pie spice. Sloppy, webby lacing. Mouthfeel fairly smooth, a bit prickly on back end. Tastes more of the spice than of pumpkin, although there is some pumpkin in there. Pretty decent fall treat.

Oct 8, 2006 Best by 01/07. The beer pours to a lightly glowing copper body with a creamy white head. Nice lacing, even in a shaker. The aroma is nicely full of pumpkin flesh and light spices with cinnamon and nutmeg. The flavor is very malty. Like roasted pumpkin flesh with allspice. Extremely spiced. Malty palate.
