Real pumpkin, seasonal spices, and fresh-from-the-patch flavor. Some people say pumpkins are fruit. Other people say pumpkins are vegetables. We say… they’re tasty! So we brewed our fall-spiced hefeweizen with pure pumpkin – a truly delicious fruiveggie!

Draft at Draught 55. Pours orange with nice nose of pumpkin spicing. Tastes of traditional pumpkin ale spices like nutmeg, cloves, and pumpkin pie filling andthey are in nice balance. You also get malt, caramel, and earth. Touch light but overall tasty.

On tap at Sugarland Flying Saucer Beerfeast. Pours a cloudy yellow orange with thick white head leaving sticky lacing. The aroma is cinammon and spice and nutmeg. Thin mouthfeel with a strong spice and cinnamon with light roast finish. A decent spice brew from Harpoon.

12 ounce bottle from State Line. Pours a hazy amber color with a large fizzy tan head. Good head retention. Aroma of pumpkin, banana. heavy pumpkin spices. The taste is pumpkin, spice, earthy notes, hoppy finish. Medium bodied with a bit of lingering spice. Pretty generic, but decent.

$2.25 for a single of this. Enjoyed at fridge temp in a tulip. Hazey sort of dark orange but very light. no head at all. Lots of very big fresh pumpkin scent. it’s very pleasant. Taste is the same. Tastes like fresh pumpkin. Nice and balanced, no big dominating spices, semi-sweet finish. 25% carbonation, light body. Very pumpkin-y finish.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy caramel-brown color with a small soapy orange-white head that left some lacing. The aroma was sour and tangy with moderate nutmeg and cinnamon. The flavor was very bitter and tart with a cider vinegar presence and some nutmeg and cinnamon followed by more vinegar. Long and bitter finish. Medium body. Not good.
