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.

Bottles shared with blankboy, tupalev & HogTownHarry - courtesy of HogTownHarry. Clear orange-amber with a small head. Aroma is quite robust - very malty & spicey, with some subtle pumpkin notes. Flavour is well-balanced, with the maltiness and spiceness complementing each other well. I didn’t enjoy it quite as much as the Smuttynose, but it was still quite tasty.

Bottle. Aroma of pumpkin pie - cinnamon, cloves, pumpkin. Reddish brown color with small head. Very lightly sweet pumpkin flavor but with strong cloves. Gives you what it says - nice without being cloying.

Bottle (12oz). Shared with blankboy, GregClow and tupalev - my bottle. Poured bright clear orange with a minimal head. Aroma sharply of pumpkin and extremely strong pumpkin pie spices. Taste is pumpkins and pie, and strangely smokey, there’s an actual beer (light ale) backbone here, fairly balanced. Mouthfeel is nicely carbonate, sharp - not bad: the Smuttynose pumpkin was better, but this one was also surprisingly good.

Bottled. Spicy aroma. A little too much cloves-like aroma. Golden beer with a white head. Reminds me of christmas in both aroma and flavor, but is too light. A fine beer for the late fall-season. (051029)

Bottle. Aroma has a hint of spice, perhaps cinnamon. Greyish copper colour. Looks flat. Sourish bitterness. Not interesting.

Flavored bud light. But i have to be honest. I have never tasted bud light. No head. No buzz. No taste, dry finish.

Bottle. Amber colour with no head. Spicy pumpkin aroma and taste. Medium body and a light dry finish. Strange.

spicey, pumpkin pie smell. tastes like a mix of bud light and pumpkin pie. only faint pumpkin though, mostly the spices from the pie, like the nutmeg and a dash of cinnamon. good though. not the best BK has given us though.
