| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 3/20 | 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.

| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | 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
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | 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.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 4, 2005 Slightly phenolic cinnamon aroma. Medium orange-brown, big head, bad label. This was a very drinkable beer, dry and fruity. Medium body. Light burn on the finish and not too bitter. Finish is malty. Loses CO2 and goes a bit flat. Balanced for a class of brew that gets a little ham-handed in the nutmeg department sometimes. Picked this bottle up from a Bleeker St market in NYC on the first HHR trip, early Oct 2005.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 4, 2005 Bottle. Clear, bright orange color and a small head. Pumpkin is present in both aroma, flavor and palate. I like it in the aroma and palate, but it’s weird in the flavor. Sobchak (131), Skagen, Denmark
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Nov 4, 2005 Bottle. - Golden amber colour. Spicy and slightly toasty nose. Very spicy taste, with a clear taste of pumpkin and the spices used to brew it, finishing with a pretty distinctive drynesss. FistFullOfCats (162), Raleigh, North Carolina, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 9/20 | Nov 2, 2005 Bottle. Pours a pretty amber color with minimal head. Aroma was lightly spiced. Good flavor, though the pumpkin seemed lighter than other pumpkin brews I had tried. Defiantly makes this brew less of a gimmick than many other pumpkin beers. Smooth finish, feels good on the ol’ palate. Not the best pumpkin I’ve had on the basis of it being a pumpkin beer, but a solid brew in its own right. CaptainCougar (5402), Rockville, Maryland, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 1, 2005 Pours a deep copper amber with a nicely-lacing, puffy off-white head. Has a dry earthy pumpkin spice aroma with a touch of breadiness. Body starts with a malty palate, but not much sweetness, a touch of cinnamon and a dry earthy pumpkin finish with a subtle hint of tartness. A very drinkable and balanced brew.
