Sample at GABF 10/08/2016, thanks to my sis for assistance with note-taking. Hazy dark golden color with a medium off-white head that recedes steadily. Stringy lace. Cinnamon, malt and caramel aroma. Light-bodied with flavors of pumpkin pie spice and malt. The finish is sweet with a malt and cinnamon aftertaste. Decent overall.

Drought. Hazy dark yellow with creamy beige head, cinnamon aroma, spicy taste, medium carbonation, longish finish. You can actually taste the pumpkin pie if you close you eyes! Nice brew.

Tap at the Gingerman. The tap was disturbed and the brew looked like a coffee milkshake but great thanksgiving dessert aromas. Tastes of pumpkin pie including the crust really good. Also get nutmeg, brown sugar, earth, and vanilla but guess that’s more pie flavors. Good stuff

Location: Draft at Ginger Man, 11/12/11
Aroma: The nose is super cinnamony and sweet, an aroma of the season, with pumpkin pie spices
Appearance: This one pours into the glass an orangish color with a nice white head atop it
Flavor: The taste is unsurprisingly rather sweet and dessert like, balanced a touch by the spice hop
Palate: The body of this brew is fairly light, with a smooth mouthfeel and a really nice drinkability
Overall Impression: This is a super sweet, but still rather tasty offering, in my opinion. Sure, it is kind of a novelty, but a novelty I enjoyed. I enjoyed it enough that I got 2 in a row, which is something I almost never do a place with the quantity of offerings of a Ginger Man. I'll freely admit to being a sucker for this one.

Draft. Pours light orange. White head. Nose is great pie crust, fresh pumpkin pie and light spice. Taste is strong upfront and then drops out in the body, which is on the light side. Enjoyable sessionable pumpkin ale.
