A orange amber ale with a thin forthy off white head. In aroma, loads of caramel, nutty notes, light spices, cinnamon and butterscotch. In mouth, a nice caramel malt with ginger and cinnamon, grassy notes, actually not bad. Bottle from LCBO.

This pumpkin ale poured a deep amber colour with a soapy, white head. No lacing. To the nose there are scents of pumpkin, corriander, all spice, vanilla and very light smoke? First sip was very thin and watery, flavours of pumkin and spice not overwhelming but flavourful. Finish was almost buttery tasting with the light burnt/smokey flavour bearly tastable.

Bottle: Poured a deep amber color ale with a medium size foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of light pumpkin notes with light cinnamon notes. Taste is also dominated by medium pumpkin notes with some cinnamon and ginger also discernable. Malt backbone is present and provides semi-sweet caramel flavours. Body is about average with light creaminess and good carbonation. Nothing extreme in this beer – just good balance mix between pumpkin and light spices.

Pours a slight hazy amber colour with a creamy off-white head that gives out a bit of lacing. Not really enjoying the scent. Reminds me of when you forget your pumpkin puree in the fridge for a while and they start turning bad. OK, not as bad as it sounds, but kind of outdated (maybe gets better near the last pour). Cannot smell the spices either. The taste is a bit better. Creamy mouthfeel with the Black Creek grain malt flavours. Still, not much spices. Preferred the new Rickards Cardigan for the spices of Autumn.

Smells rich in pumpkin aroma with some cinnamon like scents but pretty much tastes like a lager with a little bitterness. Pours orangy amber. Boring. Bottle
