Poured into a nonic pint glass, the appearance was a copper/orange color with a thin white foamy head that dissipated at a nice pace. No lacing.
The aroma blends some cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg to some pumpkin sweetness.
The flavor balances roughly between previously said aromas. Sly crisp sweet spicy to pumpkin aftertaste with a quick finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionability about it. Crisp sweetness hardens some spice to hit my tongue.
Overall, it’s a pretty good pumpkin ale. I could see myself having it again.

Thought this was pretty on-style as far as the pumpkin spice (more so than pumpkin) beers go. Cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, etc. on the aroma and flavor. Orange pour. Solid mouthfeel. Definitely an enjoyable beer for fans of the style. It isn't one of the best examples, but it isn't close to the worst either. Overall, I would call this one very solid.

Peculier Pub, NYC tap: Pours light brown with a light tan head. Aroma is cinnamon, nutmeg, pumpkin pie, and sugary malts. Taste is sweet, but not too much. Very low levels of bitterness. It is a respectable pumpkin ale.
