Bottle from Lithy, thanks! Brown color. Pumpkin, cinanmon and nutmeg in the aroma. Sweetish, spicy flavor with pumpkin. Alcoholic. Just a bit thin and sugary. Too sweet and spicy to be enjoyable.

From bottle to Pint Glass. Aggressive pour showed a nice orange color with a short lived white head. Smells of hopps, pumpkin and cinnamon. Best pumpkin taste I’ve ever had in a beer. Also tastes of cloves and cinnamon.

This pumpkin ale poured a dark orange colour with a quick living off white head. To the nose there are scents of hopps, allspice, pumpkin, cinnamon and nutmeg. First taste was full of flavour. Flavours of hopps, spice, coffee, and a little cocoa. Finish is hoppy with spicey flavours lingering. Palate is slightly bitter with flavours of allspice and nutmeg lasting.

A festive, tasty brown ale. Light amber color, medium-bodied, sweet-yet-subtle brown sugar and spices. Overall, a mild, delightful dessert beer.

12 oz bottle. Spicy aroma of nutmeg, cinnamon, and brown sugar. Pours amber clear with a small, short head. Decent palate and a natural flavor to it. Overall average brew.

12 oz bottle...pours clear amber tinted light brown w/ a cram colored fizzy head that quickly diminishes. Aroma of the typical spices ...nutmeg, cinnamon, and allspice, mixed with some baked pumpkin . Tha flavors are the same with some lingering sweetness and a touch of caramel. The palate is medium, with lively carbonation and a oily, lasting sweet finish. Very tasty!

Well made Pumpkin ale. I love pumpkin pie, and this smells just like it. Well integrated into the flavor, with no weird allspice aftertaste I get with most of this style....very natural tasting.

Pours a clear brown color with a fizzy white head that dissapates to small ring. Nose of fruits, brown sugar, nutmeg, mix of spices. Initial taste of clove, nutmeg, cinnamon, pumpkin. MId palate to finish good hop balance. Palate duration is above average. Flavor is average. Mouthfeel is agressively active bubbles. Overall interesting.
