May 11, 2008 Thanks for the bottle, iowaherkeye. The body is an opaque bright orange bronze color. This poured with a huge light peach head after a loud pop of the cap. The aroma is massive pumpkin pie with some nutmeg and cinnamon. There is also some rich tobacco character. The taste has some obvious canned pumpkin character and a long lasting nutmeg spice. The body is sticky and fairly thick. I would like something to balance out the strong nutmeg spice. Basically, this beer is tasted in only two dimensions. I would like something else in the flavor, but I guess it is as advertised. Decent, but did this need to be a 9% beer?

May 10, 2008 Poured a yellow-gold with thin ivory head. Smells amazing, just like a spicy pumpkin pie. Taste is in line with the aroma, again strongly reminiscent of pumpkin pie - nutmeg, clove and cinnamon with a mild hint of a doughy- pulpy essense which makes it feel like a bite of pie. Alcohol is hidden extremely well, pretty much non-existant to my tastes. I really like the strong tasting/unusual beers when done well, and this is the best pumpkin beer, and one of, if not the best, spice beers I have had.

May 6, 2008 Poured a cloudy brown with a small white head. Aroma of complete pumpkin pie, no other way to describe it. Flavor is also the best pumpkin pie beer i’ve ever had, just a bit too much ginger for a 10. Much like the choklat, maybe not the greatest beer, but perfect for what it is supposed to be.

Apr 28, 2008 Orange beer with soft off white head and lace. An aroma that at first comes across as pie spices but there is something on the nose that I just can’t ID. A flavor of pie but again a flavor I can’t name. Finishes with a very unusual but pleasant flavor as well. Soldid palate and good carbonation. A very good seasonal one of my favorites.

Apr 27, 2008 Bottle. [thank you, Secret Santa]
[at dedollewaitor’s Odense tasting]
Pours lightly hazy orange with a fine, creamy, yellow head. Aroma is heavily spiced, nutmeg, cinnamon, pumpkin and a note of ’wet socks’?! Fine mouthfeel. Flavour begind with pure pumpkin, then good spiciness. Sweet, peppery, lightly vinious. Nice, but not really my thing...

Apr 27, 2008 Cloudy orange with a small white head. Cinnamon, nutmeg and other spices in the nose, along with pumpkin and even a little dough. Sweet and spiced with some alcohol showing. I don’t get it. I prefer my spiced beers to be a little spice and primarily beer, but this is just liquid spice.

Apr 26, 2008 A- Deep orange, little to no head, very clear with little to no carbonation present.
S- Smells like fresh pumpkin pie, holiday spices with the slightest hint of hops.
T- Taste is sweet pumpkin pie, some spices, with a small amount of hops on the back end.
M- Very thick and creamy with a decent amount of carbonation.
D- 1 pint is definitely delicious and very tasty but it is so sweet I don’t know if I could handle more.
