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.

A: Pours a nice dark golden brown color. The head is rather large and rises quickly. It slowly fades to a mere ring, which is fed by a slow steady stream of bubbles. S: Nice pumpkin pie aroma. Notes of canned pumpkin married to lots of pumpkin pie spices like nutmeg, clove, and cinnamon. T: Nice dry ale with the taste of pumpkin and the above noted spices. It finishes with a tiny bitter bite, like raw cinnamon powder on the tongue. It is a nice easy drinking beer but is not in the upper tier of pumpkin brews. M: Light in body. Ho Hum.

Post Road Pumpkin Ale is an orange amber color with a creamy but quickly disappearing off-white head. The aroma is of light malt with strong notes of pumpkin. Cinnamon and nutmeg traces are also evident.

This beer did not leave a huge impression on me as far as pumpkin beers go. There was a nice spiciness to it, but that was the most memorable aspect. Nothing crazy and I’ve had better pumpkin beers than this one.

dchmela gave this to me at the Superbowl party. Not bad. Orange color (imagine that). Felt like a carbonated soda. Nice allspice and pumpkin aroma. Cool cinnamon and sugar hints in the taste.

On tap @ Effin’ Gruven, the bartender suggested sugar on the glass, I declined but probably should have taken his advice, he knows what he is doing, but hey I wanted to taste the beer not sugar. Right away a spiciness mainly cinnamon hit the nose, smelled like a great fall seasonal. A bit disappointed in the body and taste, it was extremely thin and bitter spicy. I did enjoy it but not as much as I was hoping for, try it with sugar next time...

bottle: nice light orange color. The pumpkin flavor really shines in this one. Sweet and malty, sprightly carbonated and smooth. Cinnamon and spice notes. One of the better pumpkin ales I’ve had this fall.

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!
