COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
We cut up 150 pounds of pie pumpkins, roasted them until they were brown at the edges and added them to our mash. Then we spiced it with traditional pumpkin pie spices instead of finishing hops. We call it pumpkin pie in a glass! OG: 1.070 Color: 18 IBU: 30

Big thanks to mday for sending this out. Pours a moderate orange color with a little bit of a brownish tint in there. White head and a bit of lacing. The nose is fairly faint with a bit of pumpkin and residual sweetness. The taste is light pumpkin pie with some brown sugar and only a bit of spicing. Good medium body with ample carbonation. Drinks well and is a nice offering. Serving type: growler Reviewed on: 11-04-2010

dmac (2510) - Toms River, New Jersey, USA - NOV 11, 2010
Draft at Maple Shade. Poured a clear orange/copper body with a fizzy smaller white head. The aroma is great with lots of balanced spices, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg and whatever the hell esle is in a pumpkin beer. The flavor is more pumpkin then expected but the spice notes are coming across nicely dominated by nutmeg and cinnamon, along with some toast and grains. Medium bodied with average carbonation to slightly bubbly. Solid but the aroma trumps the flavor.

dnstone (1469) - Mons, BELGIUM - NOV 6, 2010
Light, wheaty aroma with spice and even pumpkin notes. Amber in color with no head. Medium bodied, moderately spiced, slightly "squashy" from the pumpkin. A nice fall beer.

Damico (1223) - Royersford, Pennsylvania, USA - OCT 23, 2010
On tap in P-ville...It pours dark ruby amber with a ligjht head. There is defdintely a warming homey aroma of spices and pumpkin. The flavor of delicous cooked pumpkin and the addition of the spices over the hops hits the palate perfectly. The sweetness to balance the flavor is appreciated on the tongue.
