Sample at Augusta Bottoms Fest 2011. Bring on fall and bring on the Pumpkin Beers! This one poured a darker amber, orange color. Aroma was cinnamon, nutmeg and spices. Flavor was cookie, nutmeg, and some vanilla coming though. Finish is were the pumpkin flavors really hit you. Great pumpkin beer.

It poured a dark amber color with a small white head. The aroma was cinnamony, nutmegy and spicey. The taste was about the same. It was better than I expected. A very good Pumpkin Ale.

Sampled at the Augusta Bottoms Beer Fest. An unfiltered copper colored beer. A nice pumpkin nose. Flavor was also pumpkin with some nutmeg spice. A nice Fall offering.

I must be changing, I no longer hate pumpkin ales. This one is light clear orange. The aroma is dominated by spices mainly cinnamon and cloves. There is obvious pumpkin, but it is underlying. Medium / light body with light carbonation. More veggie on the taste than aroma with the spices going more to the background. The finish has a bit of staleness and is slightly sour and metallic. Overall this is an adequate pumpkin beer.

tap at brewpub-pours golden yellow with a fizzy off-white head. light pumpkin nose with nose of spice. lots of cinnamon on the flavors which mask the other flavors usually found in this beer. i like the allspice flavor here-it goes long into the finish. pretty good but definately not exciting.
