Sep 19, 2008 12 oz bottle courtesy of daknole. Pours a copper color with a medium off-white head. Aroma is light but true to pumpkin pie. The flavor is also true to pumpkin pie with cinnamon, clove, vanilla and nutmeg, all set in a sweet backdrop. The mouthfeel is full, smooth and creamy. The finish was long and sweet with lingering brown sugar. Overall: A first rate pumpkin beer. Recommended.

Sep 19, 2008 Pours light brown, smells like pumpkin pie. Lots of brown sugar and ginger, pumpkin flavor. Sweet. A bit too much carbonation, some stinging alcohol there also which is uncharacteristic for a DFH brew. Average at best.

Sep 18, 2008 Pours a cooper color from the tap with a frothy off-white head. Smells faintly of brown sugar and pumpkin which continue into the flavor along with cinammon, nutmeg, slight clove, and flour. I was suprised not to find any cream or filling in the taste. Crisp, but bitters as it warms.

Sep 17, 2008 12oz bottle poured into glass; Pours out transparent dark pumpkin orage with a little white head. The aroma is defintely the best part of this beer - pumpkin and spice with a hint of brown sugar. Traditional flavor and palate of a pumpkin ale...nothing special. I’d have to say the 7% alc/vol makes this beer better than it actually is!

Sep 17, 2008 12 oz. bottle courtesy of the Binny’s singles rack (Orland Park, IL). Pours a darker fairly transparent amber with fairly prominent thick offwhite head that dissipates to a small film and laces a bit. Aromas are pumpkin and brown sugar, heavy on the brown sugar. Initial is medium bodied, sweetness and bitter hoppiness on the backend with a little pumpkin on the front and more of the cinnamon and nutmeg on the backend. Brown sugar more prominent in this pumpkin beer than I’ve noticed in any other pumpkin beer. A decent brew, a nice seasonal, but no Pumking. Cheers!

Sep 16, 2008 Updated: Sep 18, 2008Bottle. Amber color with a little fizz. Probably the best Pumpkin Ale I’ve had. Cinnamon and brown sugar flavors add a lot. Tastes like a liquid low-fat pumpkin pie.

Sep 15, 2008 Pours a cloudy dark amber orange, tiny fizzy head, good carbonation. Smells of a beer battered pumpkin pie. I get pumpkin, nutmeg, cinnamon, hops, wheat, brown sugar. A little sour and bitter up front, hop bitterness, pumpkin, spices. The palate is a bit thin, but easily drinkable.
I once made this beer into a gelato and it was delicious!
