On tap at the brewery, muddy amber- brown hue, with a beige head, nice spiced nose of cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon and allspice, with some pumpkin pie crust, mild bready, biscuity, carmel malt notes, and some faint carrot cake, and good pumpkin pie accents in the aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a good toasted, biscuity, caramel, bread maltiness, strong spicy character of nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, with some pumpkin pie, cookie dough, faint carrot cake flavours, with a light toffee, nutty undertone, leading towards a spicy, caramel, biscuity maltiness, pumpkin pie, lingering light hop bitterness finish.

Tried on tap at BdT. Surprised to find this still on tap but happy to try it. Nice amber with an off white head. Some nutmeg, pumpkin, caramel, cloves, decent maltiness; mild body and carbonation, somewhat sweet with lots of spice. Wouldn’t more then a 12oz pour but it was nice.

Pours a hazy auburn hue with a thin, foamy, off-white head. Aroma is mostly caramel malts and a light floral honey character, earthy spices linger in the background and could use more representation. In the mouth, timid spices and mild vegetal pumpkin notes vie for attention against a toffee/caramel malt backdrop. Finishes with a nice warming on the back of the throat and a touch of bitterness. Smooth mouthfeel, carbonation on the low side, though appropriate for the style. Overall, this is a highly drinkable and balanced brew, just a little disappointing in that it falls short of the usual boldness typified by BDT.

on tap at brewpub. hazy reddish with a nice beige-reddish head, some retention. dry caramel malts, hint of roastiness, cloves more than nutmeg - which is great, belgiumness, fruitiness, hint of bananas. soft to average carbonation, medium body, nice grassy medium long finish. enjoyed it!

Pours a orange amber with a delicate white top. Aroma is a hint of spice, pumpkin and malt. Taste is well balanced, and nicely subtle. Spice is muted which is nice for me, malt is there but again just a hint and a pumpkin warmth. Nice seasonal.

[on tap] Star anise aroma with some eggnog sweet and spiciness. Hazy red-amber with a tawny ring. Slightly smoky anise flavour that imparts a spice bitterness. Relatively dry but with an appropriately subtle bitterness. Light to medium body, moderate to medium carbonation, spicy finish.

En fût. Verre de dégustation directement à la brasserie. Arôme: Odeur de clou de Girofles avec une pointe de caramel. Apparence: La couleur est ambrée. Présence d’un mince col mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût de muscade et de clou de Girofles avec une pointe de caramel légèrement fruité. Duurée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture légèrement huileuse. Moyenne effervescence en bouche. Présence de clous de Girofles en arrière goût. (Rating #3420)

En fût aux BDT. 5.5%. Couleur rousse-orangée. Arôme d’épices, particulièrement de muscade, de citrouille. En bouche notes de miel, citrouille, malt. Assez douce, mais un peu mince. Bonne beer mais un peu moins bien réussie que la McAuslan Citrouille.

Body , Flavor and Palate : medium bodied. Clean with good malt as base. Caramel with infused spices. Very nice balanced pumpkin ale.

Enjoyed at the BDT brewpub. Orange colour with some lace. Thinnish for a pumpkin, good drinkability, like a soft drink. Some spice, pumpkin in the aroma. Its in the style though not the best representative of it.
