sweet pumpkin aroma with lots of cinamon and nutmeg and allspice,
rich pumpkin flavor is balanced by spices that eventually take over, long bitter finish from the spices,
the pumpkin is great but the spices just get to be too much by the end of the pint

3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Amber, bright. Light fluffy head. Mild spice on the nose, with lots of fleshy pumpkin and a hint of caramel. Slight astringency on the palate, with a good pumpkin character and light spice. It’s ok, but maybe a bit bland. I had just had a famous local pumpkin beer earlier in the day and this one didn’t measure up.
