Sep 12, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a clear copper with 3 cm foamy, offwhite, slowly diminishing head. Aroma of pumpkin pie and nutmeg. Initial flavor of bread, very bland. Taste gets dry and kinda clovey. Moderate carbonation, moderate lacing, light body, and no alcohol noted. Overall, after the aroma, this beer is not very good. But it does smell awesome.

Sep 11, 2008 Pours a clear glowing dark orange/amber with a nice medium foamy beige head. Strong aroma of nutmeg and hot cinnamon with some pumpkin and a sour cereal malt base. The base is very biscuity, a bit sweet, heavily spiced, the pumpkin flavor is overwhelmed and a bit bland. Huge clove-like finish. Not bad, however it really makes one appreciate the really "good" pumpkin beers. Medium body with a little bit of consistency from the pumpkins, really nice smooth carbonation. It is a well made beer.

Sep 8, 2008 Well another season of pumpkins ales has begun. amber in color, carbonation just atad too high, modest head. very faint spice odors, citrus and spice initial tastes almost like a wheat beer. A little course bitter aftertatse but finishes clean

Sep 7, 2008 Pours a light brownish orange in color. Decent inch of head on the pour that sticks around for awhile. Smell is spice and a good amount of pumpkin. Taste is even more of the pumpkin flavoring. Medium mouthfeel and easy drinking. Decent amount of pumpkin flavoring, but could use a bit more spice.

Sep 6, 2008 Beer is an orange amber color and pours a half inch foamy khaki head. very aromatic you can smell the brown sugar cinnamon and pumpkin from the moment of opening. This beer doesnt taste super pumpkiny but has strong spices with a pumpkin undertone

Sep 5, 2008 Bottle: Poured orange brown with an off white head. Aroma is a mix of pumpkin and spice. Taste is full of floral and spice, little light on the pumpkin.

Sep 4, 2008 Clear golden with tiny white short lasting head. Floral, spicy and pumpkin notes in the aroma. Sweet fruity flavour with pumpkin, ginger and caramel notes.

Sep 2, 2008 I expected, since it is called a pumpkin ale, something a bit more pumpkiny. I could definitely detect the pumpkin, but it was too spicy for my taste
