Oct 14, 2008 Pours an orange color, with more head than most pumpkin beers. Aroma of pumpkin, not so much the spice, flavor is of a pale ale with nearly no hint of pumpkin in it. This seems to just be a pale ale with a small dash of flavor, so small that if I drank this blindfolded I would not have guessed this was pumpkin ale.

Oct 12, 2008 nothing on the nose. possibly a bit of nutmeg on the finish. Its a brown ale or a poor o-fest. Nothing pumpkin, spice, or flavorful about this beer.

Oct 12, 2008 12 oz bottle pours medium orange with a great pumpkin aroma, but also has a vegetal smell too. Nice sweet body with a good pumpkin flavor. There is also some cinnamon, nutmeg and maybe cardamom. Not bad. Less spice flavor than most.

Oct 11, 2008 Wow, looks like I liked it better than most people. I was skeptical, but it is the season for pumpkin beers right? Nice amber/orange color like the label says. Off white head with nice lacing. Great pumpkin and spice taste that is just a hint, very enjoyable, not over powering at all. They really did a ncie job with this one.

Oct 10, 2008 Draft at Redlight Redlight. Pours a clear orange-amber color with a foamy, off-white head. Spotted, sheety lace marks the glass well. The aroma is everything that I hate about pumpkin beer, which is to say overly spiced, buttery, and vegetal. Coriander, cardamom, and nutmeg dominate, while notes of buttery graham cracker crust finish off the nose. Flavors follow suit, with the coriander taking on a bitter, earthy spice bite. The palate is just shy of medium bodied, with balanced carbonation and a dry, astringent finish. Just another strange, unappealing pumpkin brew.

Oct 5, 2008 Quickly descending head and a orangish body. Strong pumpkin and spicy aroma. Tastes like pumpkin and a lot of spice (other raters do a better job than me in figuring out which ones). Barely any hops. A bit of an aftertaste. Overall it ain’t too bad.

Oct 3, 2008 Draft at Blind Tiger, with Reuben & Jen, as part of their pumpkin Promo. 15 lines i believe. All sampled as 5oz pours. Pretty average pumpkin. Amber body white head note of pumpkin allspice cinnamon nutmeg. etc etc.

Sep 28, 2008 Has hints of pumpkin spice in it. A little bit of a bite in the aftertaste, but not at all overpowering. I was expecting a little more pumpkin flavor in it like in Shipyard’s or Sea Dog’s pumpkin ales, but it still is a good beer. I would recommend this one for all of you to try for yourself. I think you’ll like it.
