Jan 5, 2009 Aromas of pumpkin bread, nutmeg, cinnamon and peaches with a hint of cookie. Light orangish and amber colors with a a bubbly head and good lacing. Pumpkin and spice flavors, with a bitter balance. Finishes with bread and sweet vanilla. Mild to medium creamy palate. Pretty good.

Jan 5, 2009 Bottle: Poured an orange color with not much head. The aroma was strange, sweet, hazelnut and caramel. The flavor was also strange. Had some nutty characteristics, some sweet malts and a strong ’real’ pumpkin flavor. None of that imitation pie filling taste. It was a little too much real pumpkin for me.

Jan 2, 2009 Been wanting to try this one for awhile. Had this on tap. Aroma was unbelievable, nutmeg, butter (in a good way), pie crust and pumpkin. Taste was much the same, with big spices and a great pumpkin pie taste. This is a pretty crazy beer, if you can call it that. I want a candle that smells just like this beer.

Dec 30, 2008 Bottle, courtesy tpdgreg, I think. Clear golden color amber pour, creamy head and lacing. Aroma is basically just pumpkin pie. And not a simulation of pumpkin pie, but PUMPKIN FUCKING PIE. Dry buttery crust, peanut butter cookies, bread, cinnamon. Here it is, the best smelling beer I’ve experienced. Flavor is terrible. Wait it’s great too! Dry pumpkin pie, malty biscuit, sugar cookies, brown sugar, big on cinnamon and orgasms. Very sweet, dry tasty flavors make this extremely drinkable and delicious. ABV is nowhere man. What an awesome beer.

Dec 27, 2008 Clear deep orangeish amber color. Minimal white head. Medium to thin bodied with a smooth carbonation. Tastes of nutmeg and cinnamon spices. Begins with a sweetness that becomes tart and tangy. Towards the end and especially in the aftertaste its almost like youve taken a bite of raw pumpkin. This beer certainly accomplishes the pumkiny flavor they were seeking, however, the raw pumpkin aftertaste is a bit odd actually. Kind of tart, a little bitter, and leaves your mouth very dry. Drinking the beer is enjoyable but the aftertaste is borderline unpleasant.

Dec 26, 2008 Poured a clean, amber/orange body with a small off- white head with some decent lacing. The aroma is reminds of of a run of the mill brown ale with some caramel, black tea, and subtle toffee. Flavor was a lot like the aroma with some very mild spices present and a bit of alcohol. It was a little vegetal which i guess was the pumpkins flavor. I had higher hopes for this one.

Dec 23, 2008 22 oz bomber - pours a clear coppery orange with a small off-white head. Aroma quite strange - sweet honeyed graham cracker, HAZELNUT! and some very faint pumpkin pie spices. Flavour is kind of all over the place, hoppy, spicy, peachy, sweet, nutty, but it’s all tied together well-enough. Alcohol well hidden, though it warms in the finish. A solid, if strange, effort - just not something I could drink lots of.

Dec 21, 2008 Bottle: INCREDIBLE aroma of baked pumpkin pie. Wonderful - how did they do it. The taste its not as good as the aroma, but still fine. It is an interesting blend of pumpkins and other bitter veggies. Not bad. Thanks BuckeyeBoy for the hookup.
