Amber color, clean with small head. Flavor is interesting, a bit biscuity, dry, luckily the spicing is very moderate, simple though; aroma is less interesting, it’s mild and soapy; the final is dry, weak, lightly spicy, but with no interest.
Not my kind of beer; have to admit that it’s at least clean and delicate. Ginger seems to be more evident than the other spices.

On tap at Yaletown, pours a clear orange with a medium white head. Aroma is syrupy, with artificial pumpkin notes - bleh. Flavour isn't as artificial, but still brings out fake pumpkin spiced and a lightly cloying sweetness. Not pleasant - too many off-notes here. Not a good example of a pumpkin ale.

Draft - Nice roast pumpkin and spice. Clear gold with a decent white head. Pumpkin, ginger and ligh nutmeg. Much like gingerbread, but not overly sweet. Not bad.
