Commercial Description:
Brewed with Pumpkin and Spices(Cinnamon,Nutmeg,Cardamom,Cloves). This 8.0% ABV pumpkin ale is heartier, spicier, and more caramelly and pumpkiny than its faint brethren! Perfect finisher on a cool autumn night, or match it up with a slice of pumpkin pie and fresh whipped cream. If you don't agree this is the mother of all pumpkin ales, then you just don't like mothers!

Pours a dark amber color with an off white head. Aroma is of cinnamon cardamom cloves and pumpkin. Flavor is very spicey with a lot of cinnamon and cardamom showing through. Very nice pumpkin pie flavor and hides the alcohol very well. IMHO second only to Pumking

Deep amber color with a long lasting foam. Bountiful nose of pumpkin pie, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove, as well as a variety of fruits. Lots of taste and complexity. Pumkin pie, all spice, other spices, cinnamon, chocolate and caramel, with nutmeg, clove and a touch of apple as well. This is the best pumpkin flavor out there that I’ve tried. Even better than Pumpking. This is a beer Weyerbacher should be proud of.

This poured copper/amber/brown in color that poured a medium-sized head but it completely dissipated quickly. The nose is filled with spice, orange and some light caramel. In the mouth it was medium to full-bodied and almost as spicy as the nose. The mid-palate is dense but fades to a light, dry finish that lacks flavor. This was quite enjoyable but I feel would have been even better a year ago.

22oz bottle. poured deep amber, with a sizable khaki head. Aroma of pumpkin and nutmeg, with some caramel malt. Flavor is rich and malty, with accents of pumpkin and spices. Long, pumpkin pie finish, heavy on the spices.
