| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 6, 2008 Bomber. Poured copper and orange with a white head. Aroma of fresh pumpkin, nutmeg, cinnamon, clove, and maybe a touch of anise. Smooth and crisp. Slightly sweet, caramel malts, and pumpkin and spice notes, though not as prominent as in the aroma. Comfortable and enjoyable, though, especially on a cold night; a good beer. Gracias querida! notalush (2648), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 6, 2008 Pours a clear copper, with a soapy, well-sustained head - the aroma is a nice mixture of nutmeg, biscuity, pie-crust-like malt, cinnamon, and fairly pronounced pumpkin character - the flavor is like a thinner version of the aroma - mostly doughy, with some light coppery, metallic character, a little pumpkin and some vegetal qualities, and very faint nutmeg - the flavor is a little bit of a letdown after the aroma, but this is fairly refreshing, albeit forgettable. blipp (1652), Newark, New Jersey, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 6, 2008 Bottle. Pours amber orange with an off white head. The aroma has pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove. The flavor is similar to the aroma, but a little less spicy and with the pumpkin a little more pronounced. Pretty good.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 4, 2008 Bottle. Pours a clear copper with a creamy off-white head. Nose is pumpkin pie - pumpkin, heavy on the nutmeg and cinnamon, sweet caramel malt. Taste a nice sweet malt body up front, followed by a dry, spicy, pumpkin-filled finish, packed with nutmeg and cinnamon. Slight floral hop not on the finish to balance. Light body and moderate to light carbonation. Really nice go for the style. Rciesla (3610), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA
