Pours hazy copper with gold edges and thin off white head. The aroma has notes of sweetness, grains, sugar, a bit of pumpkin, floral hops and a touch of cinnamon. The taste is similar, too bad, with a layer of odd tartness followed by some malts, mild hops, a bit of metal and very little pumpkin, if any.

Bottle thanks to hopscotch. Pours with a small, foamy white head and a hazed orange body. Okay lacing. Aroma is husky with notes of cheap malt, vegetables, tobacco, pumpkin, sharp nutmeg and B.O. Taste is B.O. with nuts, vegetables, sharp spices, astringent nutmeg. Very grainy and husky. Bone dry mouthfeel and a bit fizzy. Not a fan.

Bottle from the Coop in Davis, CA. Bright copper color with a slight beige head. Aromas of spice and mild caramel. Medium body with frothy/creamy carbonation. Rather astringent. Spicey. Strongly spiced and so astringent it’s like bitter. Pumpkin is there, but spice rules.

Flat-looking. Orangey with no head. Lifeless body has some pumpkin quality. Light spice and some underlying sweetness. Did not do much for me at all.

Bottle. Rich amber beer with an off-white head. Sweet malt aroma with some caramel and pumpkin pie spices. Malt and some vegetal flavors with backing spice and a bit of bitterness. Medium body. Lingering vegetal notes with bitterness and a bit of spice. Strange.
