Lagunitasfan (432), San Diego, California, USA Sep 25, 2009 On tap at Stone 9/14. Dark amber in the glass with a light nose. Clove and nutmeg> Smooth and round in the mouth. Creamy and licorice. Not overpowering like I expected. robforbes (1083), Bremerton, Washington, USA Sep 25, 2009 pours a clear dark orange with a medium size off-white head, and good lacing.
smell is of malt, pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, and other spices.
taste is creamy, pumpkin, spice, some malt, a little sweet, and some cinnamon in the end. Fratto (670), Arlington, Texas, USA Sep 23, 2009 Strong smell and taste of ginger and nutmeg with a little pumpkin. Aftertaste lingers forever, in a good way. Finhead (58), Illinois, USA Sep 22, 2009 Amber color with a medium long-lasting white head. Has a beautiful sweet pumpkin and spice aroma. Taste is nice and creamy pumpkin pie with a warm alcohol feeling. WVHouseofBeer (341), Morgantown, West Virginia, USA Sep 21, 2009 Ahh Autumn is here. This DH Punkin Ale combines a respectable flavor palate of cinnamon, nutmeg, faint brown suger, and oh yeah...pumpkin. With an utterly enticing aroma, granted this is the highest RB rated Pumkin I have tried, this brew beckons you to take a drink. The burnt orange color and previously mentioned flavor make the lack of body not seem so bad. Overall this is is one of the better Autumn Seasonals and best Pumpkin Ales around. Tanker12 (121), USA Sep 20, 2009 Cinnamon and nutmeg on the aroma, Kinda smells like a pie baking. Faint pumpkin aroma but not much. Initial taste is heavy on the spice. leaves a feeling in your mouth like you just had a spoon full of cinnamon. jlruthven (134), Milledgeville, Georgia, USA Sep 20, 2009 I don’t understand the average ratings for this beer; maybe I just haven’t had enough pumpkin ales, but this was absolutely delicious. Pours deep mahogany with small white head; nose is caramel, pumpkin spice, and brown sugar. Tastes of nutmeg, cinnamon, and heavily spiced pumpkin peel. Very nice. jbye4334 (652), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Sep 20, 2009 (bottle). Clear copper color. Small off white head. Light spice aroma. Light pumpkin and alcohol flavors. Avg duration. Smooth, slightly alcoholic finish. Slick texture. Moderate carbonation.
