100 pounds of your favorite gourd help bring out the flavors of fresh molasses baked pumpkin pie. Medium bodied amber ale packed with pumpkin spice and malt. Like pumpkin pie in a glass!!

Taster at Mass Ave taproom, cinnamon sugar coated rim. Because of the rim, aroma is almost all cinnamon. Taste has mild sweet notes and not a lot of pumpkin, but it isn't beating you over the head with pumpkin pie spice either.

Draft. Cinnamon, pumpkin malt, and straw aroma. Amber with moderate head. Moderately sweet cinnamon, pumpkin caramel malt, and mildly bitter hay flavor. Good body. Hard to measure the spice level - they garnish the glass with cinnamon sugar.

Draft: Cloudy, brown/amber with a creamy tan head. Smells like Big Red gum.....owing to the ridiculous crust of sugar and cinnamon they trowled on the rim of my glass.....Philistines...... While I couldn’t quite shake the cinnamon explosion, with effort I could detect some flavours of caramel malt, pumpkin.....and some more cinnamon thrown in for good measure. The waitress was a little taken aback when I sternly informed her: "Look, sweetheart.....it’s a BEER....not a cocktail. Garnishes, fruit wedges and rim jobs just don’t need to be part of this experience.......and they’re an abomination." Base beer was just about average for the pumpkin genre, I’d say.
