3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 ClarkVV (3578) - Allston, USA - MAR 1, 2004
Deep orange-brown, quite dark and moderately clouded. Big beige, orange-tinged head. Smells of enormous amounts of pumpkin pie spices, sweet brown sugar and cinnamon; overpoweringly sweet. Flavor begins lightly spicey, but quickly develops a huge pumpkin meat flavor. This tastes like eating pumpkin pie, very earthy pumpkin, lighter on the spices, though very sweet. Light thinning occurs on the finish, which dosent go well with the overly sweet flavor, but other than that, no complaints. The pumpkin meat flavor is so good and fresh, very good take on this style.

On tap at Kuhnhenn. Poured an orange color with a small sized head. Lots of spices - cinnamon (Big Red Gum). Pumpkin in there too, but heavy on the spice side (I prefer my pumpkin beers the other way...heavier on Pumpkin).

growler... medium clarity on a dark orange, light tan ring forms... the aroma is a bit of plastic, an infected peanut butter note, and fresh pumpkins, amazingly pumpkin beer that doesn’t have a dominating spice note... the taste is all pumpkin, a bit of nutmeg, if you’re looking for all pumpkin in a beer without the accents then grab this one

Outstanding pumpkin, enjoyed on tap at the brewpub with one of the Kuhnhenn "boys". Thick orange coloured body, lacey. Nutmeg and spicey aroma.Carbonation appropriate and right there. Nice balance and a nutritious lunch by itself.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 deyholla (3533) - Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA - OCT 24, 2010
Sampled from the tap at the 2010 MBG Fall Fest. Poured a cloudy orange with a near white head that dissipated to the edges. Aroma had tons of spice with cinnamon and brown sugar really coming through. A lot of apple as well, it really smelled similar to apple cider. Flavor was really sweet from the brown sugar with lots of spice that overwhelmed the after taste. Pumpkin really never came out in this beer and was overly sweet and spiced for my liking.
