12oz bottle from Wegman’s, West Seneca, NY. An attractive reddish amber colour with a fading off-white head; aroma of pumpkin, nutmeg and cloves; and a taste to match, with a sweet caramel malt body; and a dry warmth from the spices to finish. I’m not a great fan of pumpkin beers, but this one is a reasonable example.

Purchased in Maine on my trip there, in their mixed pack. Pours a deep amber colour with a white head. Mild pumpkin with hints of spices. Stronger taste of the aromas. Light vanilla finish. A pretty good pumpkin beer that is more in the heavy side.

Reviewed from notes.
The appearance has a hazy orange/brown body that leaves a half finger white head. Some light slowly moving carbonation is seen rising with some light lacing around the sides of the glass.
The smell centers around the obvious pumpkin and brings in a nice combination of nutmeg and cinnamon.
The taste is basically the same.
The palate sits about a medium, fairly mellow, sessionable, ginger/pumpkin aftertaste, slight bitter finish.
Overall, in my opinion, one of the better pumpkins out there from what I’ve had.

Orange clear with a shade of brown. From a bottle there is not much co2. Mild flavors with some punky spices in there.Not bad but dows have a slight cloying effect on the palate. Finish is a little medicinal in nature.

Pours deep gold into a Sam glass. Pancake head with good retention micros as it recedes leaving scant sheets. Sweet cinnamon, pumpkin and ginger aromas. Thin with sweet pumpkin upfront turning slightly sour in the lasting middle before the clove and cinnamon finish.
