lagermonkey (597), Marietta, Georgia, USA Jul 26, 2006 Pours a very clear pale orange with a thin tan head. Smells strongly of pumpkin spice, clove and nutmeg mostly. Some sweet malty aromas as well.
Tastes lightly tart (surprisingly). Lots of pale malt breadiness then the spices and a nice clean finish. Crisp and dry and surprisingly full bodied. Decent drinker but nothing to write home about. MacDaddyOJake (274), Richmond, Virginia, USA Jul 6, 2006 Decent pumpkin flavor, but a bit over spiced. Almost an assault of pumpkin on your tongue. I guess it could be a good thing if you like pumpkin, a lot! All and all, it was good, maybe much better if in season. Immy (1912), Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA Jun 7, 2006 12 oz bottle. What the hell am I doing drinking a pumpkin ale in June? Sigh. Anyway... Golden orange pour with a decent white head. Spicy, spicy nose - lots of nutmeg. Good malty pumpkin flavors, plus more of the nutmeg and a cinnamon undertone. Finish is lively, leaves the tongue singing. I’d love this stuff in the season. eaglefan538 (2355), Wilmington, Delaware, USA Jun 5, 2006 A decent, but not great pumpkin ale. This one poured a nice amber-orange color. The head was short lived and the lacing only minor. The aroma was spicey and caramel-like. The flavor was much of the same with pumpkins playing a minor role. The spicing was the strongest feature of this beer, kinda like the nutmeg took the place of a fairly strongly hoppped beer. Again, pretty good. HenrikSoegaard (4263), Randers, Denmark Apr 29, 2006 Bottle. Creamy white fair mostly deminishing head. Moderate malty aroma. A little fruit detected. Week flavor a little bitter and salty. Watery palate. Not good beer. harmfuldrunk (288), New Jersey, USA Apr 26, 2006 nose of spice and pumpkin a bit dead at the end almost like its a lager highly spiced and pumkined up its ok i hadnt had one in a long time if anybody knows a good pumkin ale please tell i want one Skinnyviking (4142), Copenhagen, Denmark Apr 13, 2006 Bottle. White but almost non existing head. Clear amber body. Cinnamon nutmeg aroma and flavor. When tasted cold the spices are dominant, warmer the pumpkin taste will dominate.
Bigassfish (140), Naperville/Chicago, Illinois, USA Apr 7, 2006 bottle. brown with an aroma of spice. tastes like a lager with some spice. hints of cinnamon. nothing special
