Tap at bowsers. Let first start off by saying pumking is not the best pumpkin beer in the world, far from it; I gave it a 1.8, but what do I know about beer, whatever. This beer is clear pale, like the original. Odd pumpkin smell, but I can tell its pumpkin. Quite unique for a pumpy brew. Overall, the coffee makes it better than the original.

12 ounce bottle. Frothy beige head disappates somewhat. Big pumpkin spice nose, with a slight hint of coffee. Bittersweet toasted malt upfront. Lots of pumpkin spice with obvious notes of cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg. Then their is the coffee element. It competes with the spices. It's like Dunkin Donuts brewed a coffee beer and threw in a pumpkin latte for good measure. Too much going on here. Warming alcohol notes lead to a odd tasting bitter finish.

Chalumeaux split this 12 oz. bottle. Almost clear in color orange with fast dying head. Aroma is vanilla, chai tea, and paint thinner. Dear god, it has a medicinal or chemical note to it. Toffee mixed chai tea, old milk, old coffee grounds, and acetone. Left a caramel and overwhelming acetone and chai spice finish. This is the worse beer Southern Tier has ever brewed. Abomination of a beer.

Poured from bottle light copper with a thin head. Aromas of terpentine or something foul. Taste is medicinal malty with lingering spice and over roasted bitterness.

Not for me, not by a long shot. Weird amalgamation of disparate parts, stitching together the pumpkin-pie-in-a-bottle indulgence of regular Pumking with a heavy dose of roasty java bitterness, all while maintaining some semblance of a beer. None of it goes together, however; the initial blast of sweet cinnamon and nutmeg crashes against an unwieldy block of strong coffee, leading to a bitter back end mixing burnt notes with heavy spicing. Looks are rather blah, coming out a fizzy orange with little head and no lacing. Nose is perfect, a slice of old-fashioned pumpkin pie siting next to a mug o' joe. Texture seems overcarbonated, but at least the alcohol's hidden. Pass.

12 oz bottle. Like the base beer, this one poured a transparent orange color with a small white head. Aroma was buttery pumpkin pie, spice and a bunch of cold brewed coffee. No harsh coffee here, but unfortunately perhaps not strong enough to really hit it out of the park. This one was just okay.
