Clear amber color with a true pumpkin pie aroma. One sip and your palate is treated to nutmeg, pumpkin, clove, and brown sugar. For a pumpkin beer, this one is a real treat.

Dec 6, 2009 22 oz bomber pours dark orange/hazy brown with solid tan head. Aroma is insanely complex: clove, cinnamon, vanilla, molasses and others. Tast is incredibly sweet, with tons of spice carrying through. Not a ton of pumpkin flavor, but ST managed to do something with the body to give it an almost dry-like pie crust feel on the tongue. This is an incredibly unique beer with the ABV hidden well. I wouldn’t say it’s a great "pumpkin" ale per se, but it’s a fantastic spiced beer. Advice: drink in limited quantities.

Dec 6, 2009 Not a big fan of pumpkin ales but being Southern Tier, I figured this was worth a try and was pleasantly surprised. Pour is hazy orange w/ a soapy sparse head, huge aroma of pumpkin bread and pumpkin spice, flavor is pumpkin spices and powdered sugar, full-bodied, alcohol is very subtle, great fall brew

Nov 29, 2009 On tap @ the Beer Engine. I was SO excited to find it on tap since I thought I totally missed the season and any chance of getting some pumking this year. Pours a very pumpkin orange only a slight bit of off-white head. Beautiful natural pumpkin taste, nutmeg spices and everything nice. Quite a treat, certainly the best pumpkin beer I’ve had thus far.

Nov 26, 2009 Pours a bright orange color with a Foamey medium sized Tope head. Notes of butter, nutmeg, raw pumpkin paste, more spices and sweetbread. Medium thin mouthfeel with a decent finish. Tasty.

Nov 26, 2009 It tasted very sweet like liquid cockies and spounge cake, lots of sugar and sweets. Very odd but also very interesting. Not sure how I would have liked this in a full glass but as a sample it was quite nice.

Nov 26, 2009 Best pumpkin beer that I have ever had. While many like to brag that their brew is pumpkin pie in a bottle...this beer is one of two that actually delivers.

Nov 21, 2009 Wow. A challenging beer. Pour is ruby orange with smooth head. Nose is all cinammon and gingerbread, with a whiff of pumpkin. Like being a child again. Mouthful is medium bodied, with more pumpkin in the mouth and the spices draw out the experience. Long, smooth finish. A unique and special beer. Very happy to have tried it.
