Oakes (6979), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Apr 29, 2008 Hazy orangey-amber colour. Bright, assertive pumpkin nose with lots of spice (nutmeg). Body is light...theres just enough malts to keep this going. Big nutmeg splash. Plus, it has lager cleanliness. Not the coolest pumpkin beer Ive ever had, but probably the most technically sound. kp (6300), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Oct 12, 2008 Date: 10/03/2008

CaptainCougar (4664), Rockville, Maryland, USA Aug 18, 2002 A unique style, and very fitting to the season. This has very distinctive taste of cinnamon and maybe nutmeg that seems to compliment the pumpkin very well. I’m not a big pumpkin fan, but I could definitely drink this with ease. hopdog (4654), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 24, 2005 12oz bottle acquired in trade with Jcapriotti (thanks!). Bottle labled bottled druing October, WK3. Poured a dark and slightly hazy amber color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of stronger pumpkin (freshly ground up) and some cinnamon. Tastes of pumpkin and spices bordering on the watery side. BückDich (4559), Boise, Idaho, USA Mar 12, 2008 Bottle: Hazy copper/orange color, light white head and nice lacing. The nose is herbal with some squash, allspice and clove up front. Towards the back a little bit of molasses. The flavor has a nutty nutmeg note along with the pumpkin and spice. The finish is a bit light and thin. Missing the maltyness that would really push this towards a respectable lager.
