Sampled from the tap at the brewpub. Poured a clear deep orange gold with an off white head that dissipated to the edges. Aroma was full of pumpkin and spices with a bit of an odd apple note. Flavor was similar with a creamy pumpkin note and lots o spices. The spices were a bit overwhelming. The beer did have a nice creaminess to it that made it feel like you were actually drinking pumpkin pie.

Light-medium bodied with mild carbonation.
