Bad combination of flavors. It tastes like they simply dumped cans of pumpkin pie mix into the vat. Check out the solids on the bottom. Not one of their best.

Light golden color with a thin white head. Strong pumpkin spice aroma. Smooth, malty taste with a pumpkin flavor. Claims to be the worlds only pumpkin lager (all the others are ales.) Not bad.

12 oz bottle, bottled wk1 of August. Pours hazy golden copper with a fizzy white head that quickly diminishes to a thin collar that leaves a little lacing.

The aroma is spices - cinnamon, nutmeg and other pumpkin pie spices.

The flavor is a bit off. Spices are present, but there is a sweet vegetal malt and some earthy bitterness in the finish. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with low carbonation.

Overall, I really liked the smell of the beer - the flavor, not so much.
