Bottle shared in London - many thanks to Fergus. Pours clear copper-gold with a creamy, white head. Pleasant cinnamon in the nose, dried pumpkin, a little leafy hop, toasted bread. Light sweet flavour with nips of gingerbread, crackers, a little orange peel. Light bodied with average carbonation. Decent balance in the finish, with more autumnal spices, more dry pumpkin, cinnamon and nutmeg, ginger. Enjoyable pumpkin beer.

Bottle thanks to Fergy at level 42. It pours clear orange - amber with a medium beige head. The aroma is sweet, sickly, spicy, nutmeg, cinnamon, pumpkin and icing sugar. The taste is dry, sticky, sweet, earthy, autumnal spice, leaves, chewy, some alcohol and root veg with a drying finish. Medium body and average carabontion. Earthy, chewy and spice. Not great.

Off white beige head soon left a skim on a dark amber, lightly effervescent body. Sweet malty aroma. Thin, minimal carbonation. Very sweet & sickly flavours of malt, dark sugar, dark fruit but I’m not picking up any pumpkin. Tastes like sweet stewed tea.

Bottle from the Architect, Cambridge. Weirdly bright orange, very clear. Almost no head and little visible carbonation. Light aroma of roast sweet potato and candy sugar. Very tasty: sweet with just a hint of cinnamon backing it up. Perfectly carbonated with a hint of bitterness in the aftertaste. I really like this; reminds me of home.
