From Sept 2008
This pours a clear reddish gold with a 2 finger head of foam. Good head retention and some lacing.
The smell smells slightly spicy, slightly malty. Not much going on.
The taste is light but does at least have some character. Light spices, maybe some nutmeg other, are up front with really light pumpkin flavour and some sweet malt. It finishes slightly bitterish. Not bad.
The mouthfeel is light close to medium but there's a harshness on my tongue that I'm not very fond of...
Overall, worth visiting once for me but I won't buy it again.

Bottle, small quickly dissapearing bubbly creamy head, light hazy very deep orange color, light spicy melange aroma with hints of smoked wood and pumpkin, flavor of spices with some yeastiness and hint of pumpkin, and biscuity malt behind, carbonation just a bit agressive. Nice and enjoyable.

Bottle clear deep copper color, scant thin off-white head. Plenty of sweet holiday spice in the aroma. Dry carmelized malt flavors and a quick dry finish. Decent but unimpressive fall seasonal.

Bottle Pours a clear deep copper with a short lived fizzy white head. No real lacing Aroma is a slight cinimon/pumpkin thats smells sweet like cinimon candy. Some malts and no hop aroma. Flavor is consistant, but not as sweet as it smelled. Lively carbonation and a nice feel. Surprisingly bitter aftertaste. Interesting but I’ll never get used to pumpkin beer.

Refrigerated bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a medium amber, some lacing, low carbonation, and a small off-white head that dissapates quickly. Taste is dark malt and some pumpkin, and some spice. Boring not interested in buying any more.

Bottle: Clear, dark, wet, copper with a small off-wite head. Lightly dusty pumpkin spice, cola aroma. Taste is sweet, caramel malt, pumpkin pie mix, toasted wheat. Not a bad pumpkin beer, really.....not overblown or watery, well carbonated......subtle, but a good cumulative spicy warmth to it. A nice little fall beer.Earlier Rating: 9/13/2013 Total Score: 2.6Clear, amber-orange with a fluffy, off-white head. Spiced pumpkin aroma...clove, nutmeg. Taste is fairly natural pumpkin, spices....

From old tasting notes. Bright copper color. Bubbly beige head. Fragrant pumpkin malt aroma. Interesting fruity malt flavor is complex and flavorful. Notes of pumpkin, nutmeg and cinnamon are readily present. Spicy hop finish.

Big pumpkin pie notes on the nose. Some light ginger and cinnamon. Taste is fairly light bodied, not overly sweet. Finish has more pumpkin pie spice. Meh. Not bad I guess. --- Beer aliased from original tick of Harvest Pumpkin Ale on 21 Oct 2017 at 18:43 - Score: 6. Original review text: Like pumpkin pie nose. Clean not overly sweet. Toasted pie crust.

Bottle from Albertsons. Kind of a dull pour, tiny head. Aroma is out of the bottle pumpkin pie spice, nothing imaginative or exciting. Actually kind of bland, with some generic pumpkin pie flavor. As expected....

Bottle from Yamaya. Huge, spicy, pumpkin pie nose, nutmeg, cinnamon, nice pumpkin too, caramel. Mostly spice. Looks decent, cloudy amber with a fine, low head. Sweet pumpkin pie and spice. Not ridiculously sweet, ok body, drinkable, even slightly enjoyable when compared to the 2 Suntory pumpkin beers.
