Post Road Pumpkin Ale

The aroma is dominated by pumpkin. The color is amber and it has a fine though disappearing head. The flavor is also dominated by pumpkin and cloves. It has a rather dry end.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a beautiful, clear, dark amber with a small, off-white head. Spicy aroma. Rather light body with a vague, underlying caramelish sweetness. Dominated by some rather exotic flavour impressions, I reckon it’s the pumpkins - a vegetable I have absolutely no experience with. But also a rather refined spicing is prominent - it actually reminds me of Christmas: cardamom, cinnamon and ginger. Dry rather than hoppy finish. Unusual. 060306

Score: *4

Copper-amber color; poor head. Very strange, but nice, perfumy aroma, fruits (oranges, apricots), rhum, spices… Dry mouthfeel, ordinary. Finishes with a mild caramel/bitterness. Good try for the aroma, but the rest...
A big thank to Jens (Ungstrup), Jacob (Lövenlund) and Rasmus (Nørrebro Bryghus) for all the effort!
