Commercial Description:
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.

bottle. Clear light amber. Aroma is faint pumpkin, light spices and malt. Taste is light pumpkin and spice flavor with some caramel and dry biscuit malts. Dry lightly hoppy finish.

Draught. Pours bronze with moderate head. Biscuity malts are right, although cinnamon and nutmeg balance are not. Okay, but certainly does not compare with seasonal pumpkin ales available in the northeast.

Pours a nice looking copper with small but plentiful carbonation. Sweet malt aroma with various pumpkin spices like nutmeg, cinnamon and hints of allspice. Very nice. The flavor has a malty pumpkin taste with cinnamon and nutmeg. Hoppy spicy bitter finish. Medium semi-dry body, a bit on the thin side though. This smells better than it tastes.

Pours a great bright pumpkin-orange color. Malty and pumpkiny with a background of warm spices. Like a dry liquid pumpkin pie. Something different and definitely worth a try if you like pumpkin.

From bottle. Poured orangish. Nice fizzy to creamy off white that dissipated around the edges, but stayed nice and creamy in the middle. Aroma was nice and balanced. Smells of cinnamon, nutmeg, all-spice, caramel and molasses. Flavor of slight cinnamon, with slight vegetable aftertaste. Malt hints are very present. The cinnamon, nutmeg and doughy notes start to come through as it wams up. The mouthfeel is so fizzy, almost harsh. Light bodied. Thin texture, finish was astringent and dry.

It looks like pumpkin, smells like pumpkin and tastes like pumpkin-flavored beer! Big aroma of nutmeg. Taste of cinammon and dough. Dry finish. A bit watery and very filtered.
