Country Pumpkin is our medium-bodied harvest ale brewed with a medley of flavorful malt, pumpkin puree, Magnum hops and a touch of seasonal spices.The masterful blend of 2-Row, Vienna, Munich, Caramunich and Honey malt with Magnum hops balances the sweet pumpkin with an aroma of nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger and allspice to create a rich, malty ale for the autumn season.

Pretty much straight pumpkin in a malty beer. No trace of spice at all, very earthy.

Sweetish spiced pumpkin nose. Neutral beginning. Grainy, with dry spiced pumpkin finish. Nice dry sessionable.

Poured into a becher pint glass, the appearance was a ruddy burnt orange color with a thin layer of white foamy head. Stringy lace.
The aroma starts off with sweet pumpkin flesh rolling into some light allspice, ginger, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Subtle vanilla with a light pie crust hits appropriately.
The flavor brings all of those previously mentioned aromas together sweetly and with a nice subtle spice to balance. Combined sweet to spice aftertaste with a crisp finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionability about it. Nicely carbonated, this one allows the spice to balance decently.
Overall, nice pumpkin ale that seems to be a nice go-to for the season. I would have again.

12 ounce bottle. Amber orange color topped by a small creamy beige head. Light pumpkin and spice aroma. Toasted malt flavor has the expected cinnamon and nutmeg spiciness. Some hop bitterness in midtaste. Nice balance. Not overdone on spices. Decent pumpkin ale.

Bottle. Cinnamon, nutmeg, and pumpkin malt aroma. Cloudy amber with small head. Sweet nutmeg, cinnamon, pumpkin, light malt and mildly bitter herbal flavor. Not bad - standard pumpkin ale.
