fluffy head, with a very strong sent of pumpkin and spices, could smell it across the room. the color is a light clear brown color with amber in it, the taste is sweet, with spices and some pumpkin. I really dont like the aftertaste this gives you, and it lingers.

I was able to try Dogfish Head Punkin’ Ale at GingerMan in New York on 11/12/08, after the AC/DC concert!! The brew was a nice deep brown color with a small tan head. All the necessary flavors and aromas to make a good pumpkin ale were present, Pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg and sugar.

Bottle, thanks Jared! This is probobly one of the best punkin beers I have sampled. Pours an orange beer with a thin amber head. Tastes like a quality spiced pumkin beer. Really good for the lovers of halloween. Although it was very pricy.

Expensive, but I had to try it. Poured orange like a pumpkin, with a small white head and light lacing. Nose is spicy, with pumpkin notes. Smooth mouthfeel for such a spicy beer. Flavor is of nutmeg and sugar. Easy to drink and quite enjoyable.

Decent, but not roundly good. Comes on strong. Pumpkin flavor there, but not really clear and present.

This is one of the higher end pumpkin ales seen around and a good bet for anyone looking to learn what this style is all about. Brown orange tinged pour as wafts of nutmeg and all spice fill my nose. The regular pumpkin pie taste but also some smokiness and savoriness from the actual pumpkin in this one.
