On tap at Elliott bay. Pours out a copper topped with a small sand head. Aroma of spice nutmeg pumpkin and rich malts. Taste is as the aroma with the pumpkin leading the way. This is my first pumpkin beer for the season. It’s a pretty good start.

On tap at Elliott Bay Brewpub, pours a hazy pumpkin orange with a small white head. Aroma gives off pumpkin puree and the usual associated spices: nutmeg and cinnamon. Flavour of pumpkin puree and t a lesser extent, cinnamon and nutmeg. Not the most full-bodied of pumpkin ales, but nicely flavoured. Solid stuff, for what these gimmicky pumpkin ales can be.

Bright amber colour. Gorgeous nutmeg & gourd character. Lots of caramel, too. There is a lot of spice in this, but it’s beautifully balanced with lots of malt and pumpkin. Dry, clovey, nutmeggy finish. Excellent - maybe my all time pumpkin classic.
