Bottle: Pours hazy amber with a whipped, off-white head. Pumpkin, nutmeg aroma. Spiced pumpkin mix, dusty spicing, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger. Truly not a bad pumpkin ale.

Pour is a hazy orange with a large white head. Aroma is a pretty good pumpkin pie spice. Lots of cinnamon and nutmeg. Flavor is an ok spice but nothing really stands out. The spice is there but this is more watery then anything. Finish leaves a little spice. Decent pumpkin ale that smelled better than it tastes.

From notes. A little pumpkin and a lot of spices. Like most beers in this style, it’s more "pumpkin pie" than pumpkin. Pretty good.

Smell is Ok but this beer is like so many other pumky beers; rude and overall not so pompkin, mostly pumpkin spices.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy dark amber color with a large creamy orange-white head that lingered and left good lacing. The aroma was dry nutmeg and cinnamon with hints of clove and sulfur. The flavor is bitter, tangy and sulfuric with moderate notes of nutmeg and cinnamon. Long bitter and tangy finish with lingering sulfur and nutmeg. Medium body. Ok.

Location: 12 oz bottle from Buy Rite, 9/14/12
Aroma: The nose is light and mostly spice (typical of style: nutmeg, pumpkin, cinnamon, etc)
Appearance: It pours a mostly clear orange color with a small white head and light lace
Flavor: The spice comes out more then it did in the nose, but it's still dull, and that's about all there is
Palate: The body is light-medium, it has a reasonably smooth feel, and a soft-to-average carbonation
Overall Impression: This one isn't bad by any means, it is just kind of dull. It is certainly not a top of style offering for me, and I really like this style. As only the 2nd rater, I can say for sure I didn't like it nearly as much as the (brewery employee? brewer's relative?) person who reviewed it before me.
