Liquid pumpkin pie, anyone? The overwhelming pumpkin and cinnamon flavor and aroma were quite good. Not well balanced though, the flavors makes a quick exit in exchange for a rich sugar sweetness. Good autumnal refresher.

Nov 19, 2006 It’s a hazy orange brew with a short-lived white head. The aroma is all pie spices, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, and allspice. Not too overwhelming. Moreso in the flavor, but if pumpkin was in the mash, I’m not tasting it. Drinkable, but one was enough for me. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?PlaceID=4563> Onion Pub & Brewery, Lake Barrington, IL<font size=-1>

Oct 14, 2006 This poured a hazy orange. Aroma was defintely spicey autumnn. Mild pumpkin and the right amoint of spices in the taste. Nice body. I’ll have to head over there.

Oct 1, 2006 On tap at my brokers office party. This is the first pumpkin beer I can remember ever having so I don’t have a comparable base to rate this against. Plenty of pumpkin pie spices throughout this brew with cinnamin, cloves, nutmeg among others. Probably would have rated this higher if i thought I could drink another one.

Dec 31, 2005 Sample at the brewpub. Hazy-translucent orange-amber with little head...spicy vegetable-fruity nose, pumpkin but also sweet potato, cardamom and cumin....fairly dry body with lots of pumpkin character, malty and lightly herbal, not pie-like at all...sweetness becomes evident near the finish as it warms.
