2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 Lubiere (6979) - Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA - DEC 29, 2010
A dark amber to copper ale with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, light pumpkin spices with muskey notes. In mouth, a lightly spiced pumpkin ale with fruity esters, a bit light bodied. So-so. On tap at brewpub, Nov. 5 2010
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 davidm (1359) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - DEC 24, 2010
Tap at the brewery. Very enjoyable. Aromas of ginger and citrus, with a hint of caramel. Taste is sweet, with bitter touches, and average duration. Palate is oily, with a thin-to-medium body. Orange, cloudy, with a frothy head.

en fût sur place, elle se nommait Jack, couleur orangée peu de mousse, nez discret d’épices, manque de caractère en bouche, bizzare comme bière à la citrouille.

On tap @ brew pub shared with Glouglouburp . Pours orange/brown with an off white half finger head. The nose is cinamonny and pumpkin pie. Nose is very creamy like pumpkin pie filling. Taste is good, pumpking some spice and overall nice.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Glouglouburp (4773) - Montreal, Quebec, CANADA - OCT 16, 2007
In short: Well put-together standard pumpkin beer
How: Tap at brewpub
The look: Partly cloudy orangy-copper with a small beige head
In long: As a beer it is spicy but as a pumpkin beer (that tend to be rather spicy) this is only moderately spicy. You’ve got your usual pumpkin beer array of spices including but not limited to cinnamon, nutmeg, etc… The beer is also quite fruity and juicy with what I believe is real pumpkin (although I never had any). A bit sweet, a bit more so than the average pumpkin pie I think. I’m not sure it is because I had their Rye Pale Ale just before but I was getting a lot of rye flavours from this one?!? Medium body, medium carbonation. A solid pumpkin ale that plays it safe and doesn’t overdo anything. The style is not very exciting but it is a nice Halloween tradition. I like Halloween, the one day of the year nobody makes fun of my cloths.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20 Quevillon (2011) - Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, CANADA - OCT 14, 2007
Bu sur place, en fut (12 oz). Orange brune, peu de collet. Arome de citrouille un peu sûr, suivi par du malte épicé doux. Goût de citrouille plaisant et facile à s’adapter, un peu malté et peu d’épice, des notes d’agrumes mi-sucré. Pas mauvaise pour une bière d’automne!
