Pours light reddish brown. Not very foamy. Pumpkin cake spice nose, sweet caramel, pumpkin pie. Taste is sweet and spicy, pumpkin pie thing going on. Gingerbread spices. Really good pumpkin beer, maybe not very deep in complexity but drinks well, especially during the right season. Dry aftertaste, pumpkin flesh and coating caramel.

12 ounce bottle into pint glass, bottled on 10/3/2014. Pours moderately hazy/cloudy deep orange/copper color with a 1 finger dense light khaki head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass, with a light amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of caramel, toast, brown sugar, molasses, biscuit, pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, light anise, and herbal/yeast earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of dark/bready malt, pumpkin, and spice flavors; with decent strength. Taste of caramel, toast, brown sugar, molasses, biscuit, pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and herbal/yeast earthiness. Minimal bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of caramel, toast, brown sugar, molasses, biscuit, pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and herbal/yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Nice complexity and solid robustness of dark/bready malt, pumpkin, and spice flavors; with a great malt/spice balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Light carbonation and medium bodied; with a smooth, moderately creamy, and lightly slick/bready mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is well hidden with minimal warming present after the finish. Overall this is a nice and pleasant pumpkin ale style. All around good balance and complexity of dark/bready malt, pumpkin, and spice flavors; and very smooth to drink. A nicely enjoyable offering.
