GABF 2006. I was initially surprised at how many pumpkin beers they had at GABF. I was, for some reason, jonesing for pumpkin beers. This was my first of the lot. Muddy orange. Nose is pumpkin pie mix, spice, ginger, and cinnamon. Taste is gingerbread cookies mixed with home made pumpkin pie. Not overdone on the spice. Rather drinkable. Body is medium with moderate carbonation. Ends with more pumpkin pie flavors, light cookie, and spices. Nice stuff!

Pours a thick hazy orange with tons of chunks and a small beige head. Aroma is very strong of gingerbread, cinnamon, and spice. It has flavors of malts, carrot cake, hops, and nutmeg.
Very different.

GABF 06. Orange with a small to medium off white head. Aroma is spices and malt. Taste is assertive spices, pumpkin, and malt. Very well balanced...very fresh. Tastes like a fresh slice of pumpkin pie. Very well done.

tap at the brewpub - Pours amber with a malt and spice aroma. The flavor is malt, pumpkin, and spices, as one might expect. The pumpkin and spice flavors are nicely balanced and quite tastey, as long as you don’t mind some pretty assertive spices, and I don’t. Don’t expect much hops here. Enjoyable.

Bottle. Pours a nice amber color with a nice tan head on top. Aroma is amazing! Smells just like pumpkin pie. I absolutely love this smell and this time of the year. Aroma is pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and spice. Flavor is liquid pumpkin pie. Tasting pumpkin with hints of cinnamon and nutmeg as if that were the crust of the pie. Such a nice beer to drink during the fall months, especially with football on and the weather cooling down just a bit. More bottles will be purchased and this will be experienced on tap!
