750mL bottle, sent from Gillard (thanks Ryan), pours a dark orangey brown with a small beige head. Aroma of pumpkin pie, nutmeg, cinnamon and a little more spicy than something like Pumking. Flavour of cream soda, loads of it, and loads of pumpkin spices, cinnamon and nutmeg, finishing sweetish on the cream soda. Quite heavy-bodied and fairly sweet, but not cloying. However, the cream soda qualities become more and more pronounced the more you drink, making it rather unpleasant. Not the best and very overrated I feel.

750 ml bottle thanks to Hefeweizenhunny. Got to say this is a different take on a pumpkin. Nose and taste is very similar. Vanilla, all spice, roasted pumpkin with a decent cookie/ dough element. Palate is nicely balanced, no spice is real dominate. Blended flavors. Creamy texture. This is a fine Fall, pumpkin brew. Among my tops in style.

Sample at the tap room. Hazy copper-amber pour with a thick light beige head that dissipates slowly. Small patches of lacing on the glass. Pumpkin and malt in the nose. Medium body with a pumpkin pie flavor with some graham cracker and malt behind it. The finish is sweet clove and pumpkin spices. Pretty good seasonal overall.
