Post Road Pumpkin Ale

Post Road Pumpkin Ale is a hazy reddish-brown ale with a fading white head. It has a spicy aroma that suggests wood, malt, maybe cinnamon and nutmeg. It’s pretty smooth and a little watery. It’s a light-bodied ale that’s clean on the palate. There is no pumpkin detected in the aroma. There are notes of cinnamon, cassia, coriander and maybe nutmeg. Pale malt is prominent in the flavor. It’s a bit bitter, but politely so. It has a nice spice profile and a wooden aftertaste. It’s very pleasing. I’m glad I got a 6-pack. This is usually the case with Brooklyn.

Amber in color. A little white head. Some spices in the nose. I can taste the pumpkin, but I’m not sure I like it. Interesting nonetheless.

[bottle] Spicy, earthy aroma with some nutmeg and cinnamon. Clear, dark amber color with some minimal lacing. Flavors are malty, with the standard pumpkin pie spices dominating. Spicy finish, with some hop character and slight residual sweetness. Medium bodied.

A decent pumpkin ale. I had this one about 2 years ago, I can’t recall all the specifics, but I will say it was one of the better ones.

Dark golden to light amber color. Taller, big bubbled light beige bubbles. LIghtly spicy aromas with cinnamon, clove, ginger and mace. Reminds me more of unbaked pie filling than the fresh out of the oven counterpart. Not much sweetness detected. LIght malty start. Starts like a heavier lager. Middle has some sharp spices that carry on to the finish and linger. Ginger type bite along with sharp cinnamon. Later in the linger some vegetable flavors come out. If this had a bit more malt depth I appreciate it a touch more. A spicy light ale.

Powerful aroma of cinnamon, malts, and nutmeg. Amber in color with a nice head. Taste is a powerful combination of spices and malts.

12oz bottle. Aroma is mild and of spicy nutmeg and pumpkin pie. Medium orange amber hue. Average sized head that fully diminished and left little lace. Flavor is spicy malt and slightly astringent. Med-light bodied. OK for a pumpkin but no seconds please .
