Location: 12 oz bottle, 11/4/12

Aroma: The aroma has pumpkin spice, nutmeg, and some caramel malts
Appearance: The pour is a dark orange-caramel color with a small, wispy white head
Flavor: The taste has less pumpkin spice/nutmeg then the nose, and more of a vegetal type flavor
Palate: The body is light-medium, the carbonation is lively, and it finishes a touch off and a little dry
Overall Impression: I'm pretty surprised I've never rated this one before, as I know I have definitely had it in years past. Anyway, as for the beer, it isn't a bad one, but the flavor doesn't live up to the promise of the nose. This is not really close to a top-of-style Pumpkin beer.

Bodega: Pours clear amber with quickly dissipating head. Aroma is generic amber ale with light pumpkin spice.Taste is somewhat sweet. Body is very light. Taste is also kind of thin. Beer is watery. This be meh. Easy to drink, but that is where the positive traits end.

So there are only 14 ratings and its from california, what gives? From a bottle it smells like mild strawberries. Looks like any other pale lager but perhaps a little more golden. Yes, a little like wheat ale with a tad of strawberry in there. Not sweet by any means. Taste becomes a little artificial at times, maybe even cloying. Strawberry flavor distract from the alky impact. Finish is a little fruity & medicinal at times, but not in a real bad way. There you have it.

The bottle opened with a Pop! and then poured a solid white head that eventually settled into a dark yellow body. Strange phenolics in the aroma. Some lacquer thinner. The flavor is lightly bitter with a sweet finish. i wouldn’t drink this one again.

A lot has changed since this was considered the most bitter beer in america - I’ve had much more bitter beers - however, what has not changed is the validity of many of the criticisms that have been lodged against this beer in the past - while it may not be as bitter as other beers, bitter is all it is, without much in the way of malt character or any other complexity to contrast - even the hop flavor itself is a bit abrasive - one dimensional and tough to enjoy.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a yellow-golden color with a large creamy yellow-white head that lingered and left a bit of lacing. The aroma was tart and sweetish Frankenberry cereal. The flavor was tart Frankenberry cereal, pineapple, bread, artificial sugar and a hint of cactus. Medium length tangy, artificial sugar and Frankenberry cereal finish. Medium body. Eh.

Pour is a murky bronze with a small white head. Aroma is strawberry and not much else. Flavor is a sweet malty mess to start but a strawberry flavor is left on the tounge. This is a one trick pony with strawberry but not much else.
