Draft. Poured coppery bronze. Smells like another pumpkin ale. Not a particularly good one, had all the elements but it didnt’ mesh.

Clear amber and light copper coloured body with a thin, single centimetre tall light tan head. Aroma of fresh allspice and coriander seed with a dose of earthy and nutty malts with little else, except for some caramelised sugars. Light-bodied; Strong nutty and grainy malt flavour at first with no squash body with only a dash of allspice and nutmeg and perhaps some canella on the spice front with more peanuts and light earthy grain to wash this down - not any body at all and nothing sweet to finish this one off. Aftertaste is relatively one-dimensional with some grain, earth, nuts and a tiny bit of very light spices washing this one down. Overall, a pretty poor beer, from the body to the spices and ending with no complexity whatsoever - this is fairly weak from the get-go and nothing resembling a nice squash-based beer (or to be honest, one from the season at all) in the slightest bit. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from New Beer Distributors in New York, New York on 24-February-2018 for US$2,00 sampled at home in Washington on 26-March-2018.

Bouteille @ JFK Taste of NY, Terminal 2, bottled 2014, batch# D. Dorée-orangée, col crémeux blanc-cassé. Arôme au bouquet agréable épicé, purée de citrouille, rétro malté, pâle et caramel. Palais est plein de citrouille, épices rappelant le girofle et un palais restant crémeux en bouche. Malt pâle et caramel reste bien présent avec un profil citrouille restant prenant. Pointe moyenne de houblon noble ajoutant une fine amertume et une note de citronné.

Bottle from Wegmans. Spicy nose-cinnamon, nutmeg, pumpkin. Orange-amber color with a fine head. Creamy, spicy pumpkin flavor, some caramel, bitter spice finish. Not all that good.

Draft. Hazy amber brown color, small off white head. Aroma is subtle mixed spice and gourd. Taste is malt forward, spice in the background, and a bit of fruit. Not bad.

Drought. Slightly hazy amber-orange color with small foamy off-white head, nondescript aroma, fizzy, pumpkin flavor, abrupt finish. Nice but not super seasonal ale.

Bottle. Pours cloudy amber with small light beige head. Clear aroma of malt, cloves, grain and fruit. Rough, grainy and spicy flavour with notes of malt and a sourish aftertaste. S/H/V is not my favourite type but this one is acceptable.
