Smell of spices, pumpkin, and vanilla. The flavor is malty but not overly sweet. Vanilla is there though not strong. Nutmeg and cinnamon. Pretty good..

Vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon, pumpkin, caramel malt, and straw aroma. Dark amber wtih large light tan head. Moderately sweet vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, pumpkin, caramel malt, and mildly bitter straw flavor. Nice body and balance.

12 ounce bottle from Nick. Splendid aroma of sweet caramel, vanilla and allspice. Flavor is toasted malt, caramel, vanilla, nutmeg, clove and pumpkin. Some vegetal notes. A wisp of cinnamon as well. Schlafly does pumpkin beers right. This one is another winner.
