GregClow (2493), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Nov 19, 2005 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. shrubber85 (2836), Wallhalben, Germany Nov 19, 2005 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. HogTownHarry (3922), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada Nov 19, 2005 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. yngwie (4880), Kristiansand, Norway Nov 17, 2005 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) MiP (8793), Sønderborg, Denmark Nov 16, 2005 Bottle. Aroma has a hint of spice, perhaps cinnamon. Greyish copper colour. Looks flat. Sourish bitterness. Not interesting. Dopplebock1538 (71), Sanatoga, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 12, 2005 Flavored bud light. But i have to be honest. I have never tasted bud light.
No head. No buzz. No taste, dry finish.
Emil (6075), Copenhagen, Denmark Nov 9, 2005 Bottle. Amber colour with no head. Spicy pumpkin aroma and taste. Medium body and a light dry finish. Strange. LilKem (1210), Marietta, Ohio, USA Nov 6, 2005 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.
