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.

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.

Bottle sampled with Beerded_one. Pours bronze with a small of-white head. Aroma of pumpkin pie, spices, and alcohol. The flavor is sweet, pumpkin pie, and spices. The body is thin, yet this is still slightly enjoyable.

Aroma is pumpkin spice, ginger. Flavor is much the same, also cinnamon, with a malty backbone. I really like the fact that this beer is thin and light on the pumpkin. Ive had pumpkin brews that were just overpowering with the pumpkin. Or tasted like they used cheap ingredients. Recommended.

Pours a thin amber with a film for head. Aroma is light of ginger, and pumpkin pie. Very thin & watery with only a light suggestion of spice and a slight bitterness present in the finish. Not too good.

bottle. Aroma: Spicy with cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Pumpkin is there, but not as prevalent as I would have hoped. A touch of sweet malt and caramel. Appearance: Medium orange in color and clear. Off white head was thin and fleeting. Not much lacing. Flavor: Spices jump out front in the flavor, as well. Again cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove seem to be the major players. Pumpkin comes through clear with a light sourness. A good slightly sweet maltiness and a bit of caramel. Palate: Medium-light bodied and slightly watery. Medium-high carbonation. Finish was slightly sour. Overall: A pumpkin beer should showcase pumpkin, and this one doesn’t. More spicy with a pumpkin undertone. Not bad, but there are better.
