Schlafly Pumpkin Ale

Brewed by Saint Louis Brewery
Style: Spice/Herb/Vegetable
Maplewood, Missouri USA

opper, no head. Aroma is pumpkin pie, as you might expect - lots of cinnamon, clove brown sugar. Flavor is alos pie-y, with a lot of the same flavors. oddly dry, crisp finish.

Bottle: Thanks Eric for the bottle...pours a clear copper color with a quickly diminishing white head. Nose has notes of pumpkin pie, biscuity malts, cinnamon and nutmeg. I let this sit for a little bit after initially tasting and it definitely improves as it warms a bit...slick, bity mouth feel...flavor is of pumpkin pie, cinnamon, nutmeg and some caramel notes. Very good and refreshing for this time of the year...I never tire of this style.

On tap at the flying saucer in KC. Pours a clear, light red-orange with a small, white head that leaves a nicely laced ring around the beer and on the surface throughout the session. Aroma of pumpkin pie. Very nice and complex. Assortments of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger bread cookies, pumpkin bread, cloves, and sweet malts. The flavor is very similar. Lots of fresh pumpkin pie spices and a buttery sweet malt. Not too bitter and finishes warm. Full bodied and the alcohol is very well hidden. Overall, the best pumpkin beer I’ve had to date. Hats off to the brewery for actually make a beer taste like it’s supposed to. Great flavor and body. A must try.

One of the best pumpkin beers out there. From the moment you pop the top and begin the pour, the aroma of fall arises. The taste of pumpkin pie or pumpkin muffins, slightly warming thanks to the decent ABV, and without being overly sweet. It’s well balanced with a semi-thick mouthfeel, and the aftertaste of cinammon and nutmeg grows pleasantly with each drink. Highly recommended.

crystal clear amber. nice white head very that settles down into almost nothing. little to no lacing. nice ginger bread nutmeg cinnamon aroma. smells like fall. sweet pumpkin pie flavor lots of nutmeg with a good dose of cinnamon and a hint of ginger. not exactly hot but there is definitely a warm alcohol presence as the beer warms. the beer has a nice full body but the nice malty sweetness seems to almost disappear in the end leaving spices and alcohol....just not a very pleasant finish. I really like this beer...just dont let it warm up. cold its a beautiful gingerbreadie pumpkin pie masterpiece....as it warms it almost becomes a spicy hot mess.

Amber color with minimal head and very little carbonation. Aroma is pleasant and is full of nutmeg and cinnamon. Flavor is also full of Fall spices. Nutmeg and cinnamon again with some over ripe fruit and alcohol. Some nice ginger bread. ABV seems unnecessarily high and the beer would have been better served with less. It is very much a pumpkin pie effect which asks whether it should be served with KoolWhip on top.

Refreshing pumpkin, nutmeg flavor for the festive time of year. I’m a sucker for seasonals and this is a good one.

If ever there was a beer that completely invoked the feeling of autumn, this beer is it. Beautiful, deep red/amber pour into the glass with an off-white head. Nice aroma of cinnamon and cloves. Tastes like pumpkin pie and finishes with ginger bread flavors. Really nice complex and well-balanced brew. Absolutely worth trying.
