[Bottle] Pours a light orange/amber color with some white head. Aroma is quite spicy, with nutmeg and clove dominating. Taste is more subtle, but includes some decent pumpkin flavor and cinnamon mixed with light grainy malts. Weak palate and fizzy mouthfeel. Not the worst pumpkin beer I have had this season.

Light, clear pour. Cinnamon and nutmeg aroma with good pumpkin spice flavor with a little malt. Decent off the shelf pumpkin ale that has more spice that most. Drink alone, does not accompany food well.

Ugh.....terrible beer. Aroma was somewhat ok, mainly due to the spice. But the flavor was way off-balance....too much spice and little to no pumpkin present. Weak malt flavor. I found it difficult to finish the beer.

Light yellow-orange with a finger of quickly settling white head. Soapy spice aroma, some all spice and cinnamon in there. Taste is weak malt with more pumpkin pie spices.

Yellowy orange color. Tastes of alspice and nutmeg. Cinnamon smells mixed with the pumpkin. Light body. Very fizzy, like fountain soda. Not too bad. Not really into pumpkin beer though.

Clear Applejuice pour with minimal wisps of off-white head. Aroma of light nutmeg. Flavor is pumpkin, nutmeg, cinnamin. Prickly carbonation. Little better than average.

12 oz bottle. Pours a pale yellow with just a hint of orange. Nose is faint pumpkin and grains. Palate is a bit on the thin side with a moderate amount of carbonation. Beer has a light pumpkin taste mixed with some grains. A little cinnamon/nutmeg spice flavor too.

Poured a cloudy orange color with a slightly off white head. Aroma is mainly of ginger and other mixed spices, not very strong though or enticing. Flavor was a bit better than the aroma, nice mixure of spices, some flavor sticks out more than the other but not quite sure which spice. Not good, but a bit better than its ratings show.
