Pumking is an ode to Púca, a creature of Celtic folklore, who is both feared and respected by those who believe in it. Púca is said to waylay travelers throughout the night, tossing them on its back, and providing them the ride of their lives, from which they return forever changed. Brewed in the spirit of All Hallows Eve, a time of the year when spirits can make contact with the physical world and when magic is most potent. Pour Pumking into a goblet and allow it’s alluring spirit to overflow. As spicy aromas present themselves, let it’s deep copper color entrance you as your journey into this mystical brew has just begun. As the first drops touch your tongue a magical spell will bewitch your taste buds making it difficult to escape the Pumking.

Poured a nice orange. A bit of head that disappears quickly. Nice pumpkin spice and cinnamon aroma. Pumpkin bread like taste with hops to finish. Well done.

Bottle. More of a gold than an amber color. Medium head. Aroma is vanilla, pumpkin spice and a creamy hazelnut. Taste is vannilla, with a nutty flavor. Really like it.

wow, what an amzing aroma on this beer. LOADS of pie spices, it smells just like i’m drkinking a pumpkin pie!!! the flavour is a little less complete, lots of cinnamon, caramom, and all spice. Not much else in here, i’m not getting much hops or malt, its like pie in a bottle.

Bottle 0,65ltr: I’am surprised by the fact that I have been able to add this beer, and i’am from the Netherlands. But that aside, now the surprisingly good-tasting beer. Hazy orange of colour, with an very well sweet taste due the pumpking. I noticed carrot, apple and bubblegum flavors, and finish is sweetbitter.
