Sep 6, 2008 Bottle into Pizza Port pint; purchases at Binny’s, Niles IL. Crystal clear pumpkin orange in the glass, initial white head of medium size dissipates quickly to the thinnest of dustings. Smells like yeasty pumpkin pie; not sure I like it, but if you like pumpkin pie, I’m guessing you would. Same on the flavor: creamy texture, lactic sweetness, very natural in the flavors, and the spiciness of the pie flavor lingers in the finish. One of the best "spice" beers I’ve had; I’m just not a huge pumpkin fan, I guess.

Sep 6, 2008 wow, what an amzing aroma on this beer. LOADS of pie spices, it smells just like i’m drkinking a pumpkin pie!!! the flavour is a little less complete, lots of cinnamon, caramom, and all spice. Not much else in here, i’m not getting much hops or malt, its like pie in a bottle.

Sep 5, 2008 Thanks to rustychiles for the share. Pours a beautiful luminescent orange with no head. The aroma is absolutely heavenly on this. Full of pumpkin, butterscotch, and especially nutmeg. Almost too much nutmeg. Flavor exactly reflects the aroma. Alcohol was very well hidden; didn’t poke through and ruin the taste at all. A treat.

Sep 5, 2008 Bottle courtesy of santa.
Pours a clear orange with a small soapy head. Aroma of warm pumpkin pie filling, nutmeg, cloves, spices, butterscotch. Flavor is pumpkin,nutmeg,cloves, spices. Very pumpkin-pie like unlike a lot of pumpkin beers it seems less artificial and forced. Nice mouthfeel and a little nutmeg bitterness in the finish.

Sep 5, 2008 Pours a cloudy golden-orange color with a thin bubbly off-white head. The aroma......oh my god - liquid pumpkin pie. NO LIE! Down to the cool whip and crust, it is there! I’m almost afraid to taste it because I don’t want to be disappointed. Ok.....drinking it. The taste definetely focuses on the crust of the pie, and also the pumpkin and spices. There is a hint of alcohol and hoppiness, that is wish was even more pushed into the background.

Sep 5, 2008 An absolutely incredible beer. Spectacular out of the bottle but damn near ambrosia on tap. Well balanced pumpkin pie flavor and a crisp finish to the malty body. Sumptuous pie spice aroma with faint pumpkin in there as well. Truly divine in front of a fire.

Sep 4, 2008 Updated: Jan 8, 2009WOW. Huge thanks to GMCC2181 for knocking my socks off with this one. Up front, I am not and have not been a huge fan of spicey/pimpkin beers, but this one was so spot on that even I loved it. Looks, smells, and tastes just like pumpkin pie, seriously. Even the crust is in there. All that’s missing is a scoop of ice cream. This one is thick, creamy, and pumpkin pie in every way. AWESOME.
