Jan 29, 2008 Updated: Oct 21, 2009This beer did not have as much pumpkin flavor in 2007 as it did in previous years. It is still enjoyable with its deep copper color and very cinnamony/ nutmegy/ allspicy aroma. It is a solid beer and much better than other pumpkins available in FL. The most notable taste is the cinnamon & spice, whereas in years past it has been the pumpkin. Hmmm...

Jan 24, 2008 New copper in color. The nose was spicy and filled with pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg and coffee. In the mouth it was medium-bodied and smooth showing the pumpkin followed by a touch of spice but not as much as the nose. A well-balanced beer that is very drinkable and enjoyable but the palate does not stand out like the nose does.

Jan 22, 2008 One of my perennial favorite pumpkin ales, although it might be too spicy for some. I find this recipe sublime, beginning with the smoky and woody nose. The taste of pumpkin is subtle, not too sweet, before handing it over to the cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. Conjures up images of autumn leaves, a roaring fire, and hot homemade pie.

Jan 10, 2008 Updated: Jan 11, 2008Pours an orange-copper with a light ring of foam. Sugary aroma with light spice. Alcohol is very present in the taste, with ginger, nutmeg, and cinnamon in the background. Wow! Thin carbonation, decent body. What an interesting approach to pumpkin beer - high alcohol really surprises. Great spice, but where’s the pumpkin?

Jan 8, 2008 12oz bottle, marked 8/9/07. Pours clearish orangish color with a very thin 1/4" head. Much less spicy smelling than the year old bottle. Still get a little spice and a little pumpkin but definitely not as much. Again, much less spice on the nose. But I think its better that way. More sweetness in the spice and a more sweet pumpkin taste. Thin and crisp palate. Much more drinkable than the 1 year old bottle...

Jan 5, 2008 From a bottle. Pours a dark golden color with small head. Cinnamon and nutmeg in the aroma. Great spice flavor. A bit creamy mouthfeel. good pumpkin beer but I like Weyers Imperial Pumpkin Ale better.

Jan 4, 2008 12 oz bottle. Dark gold pour. Strong alcohol and pumpkin nose with spiciness in the background. Taste of pumpkin (duh), alcohol and spices. A nice winter seasonal and one of the few pumpkin beers I can handle. Extra credit for my wife liking this.
