This one of the best pumpkin beers I have had. I will let you know that pumpkin beers are one of my favorite styles. The flavor was solid. Not too sweet, not too spicy. Had a great clean and pumpkin finish that I think I have had in only one other beer like this. This years batch "2008" was amamzing.... This was off the draft at the brewery.

From the Jug at the GABF, Colorado Convention Center 11/10/2007 Spicy aroma. Golden coloured with a spicy pumpkin flavour. Floral and slightly bitter lasting finish.

12 oz bottle thanks to douglas88. Pours hazy amber with small off-white head. The aroma is pretty strong allspice, clove, and cinnamon with maybe a little bit of caramel sweetness. The flavor is balanced more toward the clove, with a good dose of cinnamon right behind it. Faint malt sweetness balances all the crazy pumpkin pie spice. The finish is a little bit dry and carbonic like soda-water. Still, a decent enough pumpkin ale.

poured a nice amber orange color with an off head. Aroma was a little fainy but cinnamon and nutmeg came through the most. Flavor was a bit watery, but very well balanced and the spices came through very nicely. No Pumking, but a good pumpkin beer.

White head on pumpkin coloured (dark orange) beer. Light spice scent. LIght pumpkin flavour with some soft lingering spices. Stronger toward cinamon than nutmeg.

Bottle courtesy of douglas88. Pours copper with a thin white head. Smells of caramel, pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice, some doughy hints. Tastes of spice, cookie dough, some peppery splashes.

I would totally have it again. Tap at the ’Satch. Very first sniff brings a spot-on replica aroma of pumpkin pie - complete with nutmeg. It’s awesome! Second whiff is cloves and hops. Flavor is mainly spice: clove, cinnamon, hops and flour at the end - the resulting creamy pie crust impression of the finish may complete a "pie filling aroma/pie crust finish" conceit that is impressive on its own, but what keeps it below a 4 for me is that I don’t get the filling in the flavor. Very worth your time if ever in Park City.
