Bottle; Filtered.
Post Road Pumpkin Ale is a revival of a beer brewed by the early American colonists. Pumpkins were plentiful, flavorful and nutritious and they blended nicely with barley malt. Hundreds of pumpkins are blended into each batch of Post Road Pumpkin Ale, creating a beer with an orange amber color, warm pumpkin aroma, biscuity malt center and crisp finish. Post Road Pumpkin Ale is spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg.

Too light for fall beer ,has all the flavors you want but not full enough.If you like lite beers this maybe the pumpkin beer for you.Pours amber and clear with small bubbles rising from bottom of glass.Not much noise at all.All the flavors of a good pumkin ale cinnamon,nutmeg and clove but lite.

From the bottle this ale pours a orange color with a white head. Aroma of pumpkin, spice and malt. Nice balanced taste of pumpkin with cinnamon and nutmet along with a malty body. Still not a huge fan of the pumpkin ales but this is one of the better ones out there.

bottle: nice light orange color. The pumpkin flavor really shines in this one. Sweet and malty, sprightly carbonated and smooth. Cinnamon and spice notes. One of the better pumpkin ales I’ve had this fall.

Draft. Light orange pour with some white head. Where is the pumpkin? Flavor is lacking and in the aroma. Also very thin in the body.

Was way more impressed last year when I was trying pumpkin ales for the 1st time. This time I thought it was pretty lacking.

This is the first beer I have given a numeric rating to in quite a while. In the past pumpkin beers have been rather bland or otherwise rough going down. This one, however, is surprisingly good. There is a significant amount of pumpkin spice, and the finish is malty without being bitter and sticky.

On tap at Weasel Boy. Clear reddish amber pour with a thin off-white head. Nose of nutmeg, cinnamon, malt and allspice. Not getting any ginger or clove notes and now that I read the description, that makes sense. Spicy and malty flavor, but the finish is kind of dank and odd. Other than that, pretty good.
