2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20Location/Date:Bottle on October 27th, 2012 from Ben.
Appearance: Pours an opaque dark orange.
Aroma: Aroma of pumpkin, some pumpkin beer spice(clove, nutmeg), kind of light.
Taste: Light pumpkin, less spice than in the nose, sweet. There is something on the finish that just doesn’t agree with me..
Palate:Light body, some underlying fizz I dislike.
Summary: First off, thanks Ben for the beer! An okay pumpkin beer. The nose is okay, the taste just has something weird on the end that I don’t like and the beer is a bit fizzy.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle: Orange side of amber, faint haze, moderate frothy off-white head, little lacing. Soft spicy nose, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice. Smells like standard fair. Similar tongue, varied spices, not too strong, but linger past the finish. Body and mouthfeel are moderate. Clean finish, soft spices linger. Starndard fair, but well put together. Could stand to be a touch brighter on the tongue.

From notes. A little pumpkin and a lot of spices. Like most beers in this style, it’s more "pumpkin pie" than pumpkin. Pretty good.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On draught at the Horny Hideaway in Milwaukee and via 12-oz bottle. Pours a semi-hazy amber colored brew with an average sized off-white head that quickly dissipates to a thin ring and minimal lacing. Aroma of typical holiday spices of nutmeg, cinnamon, a hint of allspice, pumpkin and caramel malt. Taste is light to medium bodied, some extra carbonation with flavors of caramel malt, nutmeg, a hint of cinnamon and pumpkin. Finish is a tad light with a quick mild bitterness that leaves behind some nutmeg and pumpkin aftertaste.

Bottle. Slightly hazy deep orange pour with minimal head. Nice pumpkin aroma but this kind of falls apart on the taste. Not great.
1.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
UPDATED: DEC 30, 2012 Smell is Ok but this beer is like so many other pumky beers; rude and overall not so pompkin, mostly pumpkin spices.
2.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Hazy amber with a thin off-white head. Aroma of pumpkin spices, ginger, allspice and caramel. Taste is over-spiced and dull with mace, allspice and a mild malt backer.
3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
nice golden/orange color. Nice aroma, but nothing amazing..which sums up the beer. A nice pumpkin ale, but nothing amazing. Smooth pumpkin, nutmeg taste, but nothing that stands out. Easy to drink and easy to enjoy.
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Stacks up well against other pumpkin beers. I like the balance. Not overly spiced. A bit watery.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy dark amber color with a large creamy orange-white head that lingered and left good lacing. The aroma was dry nutmeg and cinnamon with hints of clove and sulfur. The flavor is bitter, tangy and sulfuric with moderate notes of nutmeg and cinnamon. Long bitter and tangy finish with lingering sulfur and nutmeg. Medium body. Ok.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 15/20
Strong pumpkin and spice aroma. Golden amber color. Slightly over carbonated but dissipated as I drank. Pretty good.
