UPDATED: OCT 15, 2012 Location/Date:Bottle on October 14th, 2012.

Appearance: Pours a dark copper.
Aroma: Aroma of pumpkin spice, clove, wheat.
Taste: Sweet of pumpkin, some spice.
Palate:Medium light.

Summary: Honestly, I always try to examine a beer without judging the brewery, but I have a predilection against MillerCoors. However this one was better than I expected.

October 2010. From bottle. This is actually a pretty good pumpkin ale but not quite up there with the heavy hitters. I would think this one again.

Overbearing; they're trying too hard. A bit too sweet. A bit too spicy. Good malt backbone nonetheless. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

I have tried a lot of pumpkin ales sesrching for a decent one. This is by far the best one I have come across. Taste is nice but not too strong. Can be difficult to find.

I loved the taste of Blue Moon and was hoping this beer would deliver as well. This pumpkin ale is quite difficult to describe. There really isn’t much of a smell to the beer but it does have quite a heavy taste. It does leave quite an after taste though which I didn’t really care for with this beer. You really have to search for that pumpkin taste which is very faint.
