Commercial Description:
Bottle; Filtered.
Post Road Pumpkin Ale is a revival of a beer brewed by the early American colonists. Pumpkins were plentiful, flavorful and nutritious and they blended nicely with barley malt. Hundreds of pumpkins are blended into each batch of Post Road Pumpkin Ale, creating a beer with an orange amber color, warm pumpkin aroma, biscuity malt center and crisp finish. Post Road Pumpkin Ale is spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg.

Bottle (12oz). Shared with blankboy, GregClow and tupalev - my bottle. Poured bright clear orange with a minimal head. Aroma sharply of pumpkin and extremely strong pumpkin pie spices. Taste is pumpkins and pie, and strangely smokey, there’s an actual beer (light ale) backbone here, fairly balanced. Mouthfeel is nicely carbonate, sharp - not bad: the Smuttynose pumpkin was better, but this one was also surprisingly good.

Bottled. Spicy aroma. A little too much cloves-like aroma. Golden beer with a white head. Reminds me of christmas in both aroma and flavor, but is too light. A fine beer for the late fall-season. (051029)

Bottle. Aroma has a hint of spice, perhaps cinnamon. Greyish copper colour. Looks flat. Sourish bitterness. Not interesting.

Flavored bud light. But i have to be honest. I have never tasted bud light. No head. No buzz. No taste, dry finish.

Bottle. Amber colour with no head. Spicy pumpkin aroma and taste. Medium body and a light dry finish. Strange.

spicey, pumpkin pie smell. tastes like a mix of bud light and pumpkin pie. only faint pumpkin though, mostly the spices from the pie, like the nutmeg and a dash of cinnamon. good though. not the best BK has given us though.

Slightly phenolic cinnamon aroma. Medium orange-brown, big head, bad label. This was a very drinkable beer, dry and fruity. Medium body. Light burn on the finish and not too bitter. Finish is malty. Loses CO2 and goes a bit flat. Balanced for a class of brew that gets a little ham-handed in the nutmeg department sometimes. Picked this bottle up from a Bleeker St market in NYC on the first HHR trip, early Oct 2005.

Bottle. Clear, bright orange color and a small head. Pumpkin is present in both aroma, flavor and palate. I like it in the aroma and palate, but it’s weird in the flavor.
