Commercial Description:
This frothy ale is made with 9 different specialty malts, 100% English Fuggle hops, and nearly 300 pounds of real pumpkin. During and after the boil, we add a subtle blend of fresh-ground spices, resulting in a very smooth and malty, complex ale with noble hop and spice aroma. We hope you will get a chance to enjoy this limited offering, and no, it’s not just a glass of grandma’s pumpkin pie, it’s still a beer.

12oz. Bottle: Aroma of nutmeg, pumpkin, and spice. Poured amber/orange in color with a small off-white head that diminished. Clear. Sparkling. Looks thin. Flavor of pumpkin and some spice. Not very tasty. Medium body. Average carbonation. Spice finish.

Pours a dull amber with a medium cream head. Aroma is alcohol and spice. Has sortof a cheap malt beverage taste, laced with alcohol. Faint pumpkin, vegetable covering. Body is surprisingly full. Moderate carbonation.

This is a solid fall camping session beer. Always, always have a sixer of pumpkin patch on hand when you’re cooking burgers and dogs around the campfire on a crisp autumn night. BONUS: if you live in the MD/DC/VA region, like camping, and can get this stuff, combo it in with a sixer of Dominion Oak Barrel Stout and enjoy fall the way it was meant to be enjoyed :)

As previous people have said, this beer is very subtle. To be honest I’m happy and disappointed by that. I like how the pumpkin takes a slightly more center stage to the beer unlike so many out there that seem to only use spices with a hint of pumpkin flavor. Nothing overly bad about it, and perhaps will be revisited before the season is over.

Very subtle. Doesn’t hit you over the head with pumpkin. Nice flavors of the season. Nicely done.

Bottle. Fresh. Perfectly clear amber and red apple colored body with a thin white head. Pretty nice nose of holiday spiced apple cider, marashino cherries, and only a small, candied sweet pumpkin note. Flavor is pasty and a little bland, with some crisp apples, some cider, some cherries and again that same candied pumpkin flavor, finishing with a tart peach skin note.

Poured from 12 oz bottle to standard pint glass. Minimal white head that dissipates quickly to nothing. Aroma is mostly of pumpkin, while taste is pumpkin and nutmeg. Medium bodied. One of the better pumpkin beers I’ve had.

Bottle sampled. Pours a clear deep orange with a small off-white head. Aroma of spices, pumpkin, and alcohol. the flavor is sweet, pumpkin, spices galore, and finishes with slight traces of detectable hops.
