Oakes (10184) - Gibsons, British Columbia, CANADA - NOV 21, 2000
This bottle was made by Portland Brewing. It’s good, well balanced, but not as deft or stylish as the version made by McAuslan in Montreal, which is the same beer, though it doesn’t say so on the label.

bu11zeye (10165) - Frisco (Dallas), Texas, USA - OCT 10, 2003
UPDATED: OCT 4, 2004 (Bottle) This ale poured a deep cooper color with very little head. Had a strong pumkin and cinnamon aroma. Tasted like pumpkin pie with a bitter bite at the end.

argo0 (9224) - Washington DC, USA - NOV 9, 2002
Light orange body with a light tan head. Aroma is pumpkin pie. Flavor is fairly mild hops, topped by pumpkin, nutmeg and allspice. Nice, but nothing you’d ever have a hankering for.

bhensonb (7579) - Woodland, California, USA - NOV 6, 2006
Aroma of pie spices, especially clove. Slightly hazy amber color with a quickly disappearing head. Starts with clove, hit of carbonation, finishes with clovey veggie flavor. Clove persists. Interesting. At least it is not squash.
