A very drinkable pumpkin ale—brewed with pumpkin puree and juice, and spiced in conditioning with ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and allspice.
Both roasted and raw pumpkin seeds are in the mash, with pumpkin added to the mash and fermenter.

Opaque copper color with cinnamon aroma. Spiced just heavily enough to not be overpowering. Dry malty finish. Slight cinnamon aftertaste. One of the better pumpkin ales.

Floral nose. The beer starts malty with nice pumpkins in the back. Spices, fruit. Easy to drink, floral spices with great smooth dry pumpkin in the back. Great.

Pours a dark amber with an average while head, decent lacing. Aroma of cloves and cinnamon. Taste has a smooth malt element, note of pumpkin pie, cinnamon, nutmeg. Palate definitely has some of the ginger that the label describes, vegetable-medley finish on the tongue. Good, slightly more body than most pumpkin beers.

12 oz bottle, poured slightly hazy copper with little head. Medium bodied, soft carbonation. Pumpkin spice aroma. Cinnamon forward taste with caramel malt and pumpkin, avoiding the all too common overspicing. Nutmeg is prominent in the finish.

12 oz. can purchased at Total Wine & More - Melbourne, FL. Pours a cloudy dark bronze color with a tight off white head and very good retention. Good lacing. Fall spice aroma. Strong pumpkin pie flavors throughout. Good balance of sweet and spice. Tastes like fall. Medium body and medium finish. The 6.7% ABV is warming but well hidden. Well done.
