SHANER4 (370), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA Oct 6, 2009 Bottle 12oz. -Poured hazy copper color with large beige head.
Aroma - Cloves, pumpkin spice and brown sugar
Flavor - Sweet brown sugar, pumpkin spice. Has clove/cinnamon finish and aftertaste.
Palate - medium bodied with average carbonation. Finish has mild hot spice and strong cinnamon aftertaste.
Overall - Good beer with mild RED HOT candy taste!! Goes down way easy and alcohol is hidden well. l1br4r14n (274), Washington, Washington DC, USA Oct 6, 2009 Pours dark amber with a small off-white head. Aroma is mostly pumpkin. The spices really come through in the flavor, cinnamon, nutmeg and brown sugar, with just some pumpkin sweetness. Decent carbonation goes well with the spice and barely noticeable alcohol. Fantastic pumpkin ale! Pipper (225), Ohio, USA Oct 6, 2009 Poured into pint from a 6-pack. Dark amber pour with a slight tan head and slight carbonation enough for a bite to pair with the ever-present abv. Definitely spicy but I kind of miss the pumpkin bit because it feels overwhelmed by the abv. All I want is ST Pumpking! jjuf1853 (467), Land O Lakes, Florida, USA Oct 6, 2009 Draft. Pours a robust brown color with a tan head. Wonderful aroma that combines pumpkin, allspice, nutmeg, and hops. Good flavor. I like that it isn’t completely dominated by pumpkin, but you can taste a medley of spices. CUJO (339), Brooklyn, New York, USA Oct 6, 2009 RnH: ’Tis the season and I’m drinking loads of pumpkin ales... however this one dissapoints. Very watery and thin, very small amount of spice, next to no taste of pumpkin. Carbonation was too high washing away whatever taste was available. Maybe I got a bad batch but in my opinion this beer is highly overrated. jport4087 (73), Pennsylvania, USA Oct 5, 2009 Not as strong as other pumpkin beers. Nutmeg and clove flavors. Sweet flavors, but was expecting a bit more from Dogfish Head. JohnnyJ (1282), Carlsbad, California, USA Oct 5, 2009 Clear orange pour. Spice, nutmeg, pumpkin pie, syrup, and a bit of vanilla. I enjoyed it.
