Commercial Description:
Brewed with Pumpkin and Spices(Cinnamon,Nutmeg,Cardamom,Cloves). This 8.0% ABV pumpkin ale is heartier, spicier, and more caramelly and pumpkiny than its faint brethren! Perfect finisher on a cool autumn night, or match it up with a slice of pumpkin pie and fresh whipped cream. If you don't agree this is the mother of all pumpkin ales, then you just don't like mothers!

Bottle at Odin’s Den, poured copper with a thick head, aroma of spice, body was thick and malty with plenty of spice and a nice pumpkin taste at the finish with a detectable amount of alcohol, bigger, better and stronger than your average pumpkin ale

12 oz draught at Frisco Grille poured medium copper color. Butter, honey and pumpkin in the aroma. Medium body with a nice malty, pumpkin taste. It is more about the pumpkin than it is about spice. Great beer this time of year.

On draft at Redlight Redlight. Pours a cloudy orange-brown with a thick head. There’s a whole lotta spice in this beer. Lots of brown sugar and pumpkin pie spice. Very sweet and lacking roasted malt. It is a little thick on the palate and has a nice kick. Overall, a good pumpkin and sweeter, thicker and stronger than most.

Pours clear copper with off white head that goes away quickly. Aromas of nutmeg and clove. Flavor is very sweet with heavy doses of clove and nutmeg. Medium body with average carbonation and a syrupy mouthfeel.

Pours a rich amber color. Light off-white head. Aroma is intense pumpkin pie spice. Uh oh, this is going to be a one sided mess according to the aroma! Taste is surprising as it wasn’t once sided like the aroma led me to believe. Of course it has the pumpkin pie spices that all pumpkin beers do, but everything is well balance and not off-putting. Probably one of the best pumpkin beers out there.

Pourts a medium copper brown with a small white head and good carbonation. The aroma is very sweet and spicy with pumpkin, cinnamon, dark fruit and malt. The flavor is some pumpkin, some cinnamon and little else. Medium bodied, thin texture. Short spicy finish.

I’m editing my comment... At first I was not impressed with this beer at all... (surprisingly)... but after having a couple more I think the first bottle I had just wasn’t the best....Nice pumpkin pie aroma, which helps since there is minimal pumpkin flavor l...Nice beer, but I expect a little more from a pumkin ale...
