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!

22oz bottle. Poured a dark amber color. Fairly thick head with strong spicy aroma. Nutmeg and cinnamon noted in the flavor. Alcohol fairly hidden. Smooth and easy to drink for such a spicy beer. Felt like I was drinking Thanksgiving and Halloween in a bottle. Very good pumpkin ale overall

Bottle via trade with JCB (I think...) Nose has lots of rich spiciness. Cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, gingerbread and graham cracker. Pours firey copper with a frothy off white head. Flavor has a lot of spice. Cinnamon and clove being the most prominent. A hint of sweet malt and peppermint. Creamy, medium bodied, finishes a tad watery.

Tremendous beer, stong pumpkin flavor and one of the best beers I have ever had. I’m biased as this is my favorite type of beer. Unfortunately you can only get this during the fall months.

10-30-07 bottle. Dark cloudy amber color with great head. Hints of alcohol in the aroma up front. Heavy pumpkin aroma with a fair amount of spice, nutmeg perhaps. Strong, outspoken flavor of pumpkin and spice. Smooth and creamy. I am not a fan of Pumpkin brews - but I have to admit - this is one of the better ones.

22 oz bottle. Poured a clear dark orange color. Head was off white and reduced to a thin film over a few minutes. Lots of spices in the aroma, mostly cinnamon and clove. Slightly sweet with a perfumy flavor up front, plenty of pumpkin throughout, and mixed spices at the end. The alcohol was masked. Pretty good pumpkin beer.

From a pint glass. Pours a clear, deep copper with a nice creamy head that slowly dissipates leaving a nice lace. Not surprisingly, BIG spice flavors...cinnamon, nutmeg. Medium body with a nice off-sweet finish.

22 oz bottle. Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin Ale is a wonderful strong pumpkin beer. Strong pumpkin, cinnamon, and nutmeg aroma. Flavor is the same with a slight alcohol presence which is absent from so many other pumpkin beers.
