This one listed as Pumpkin’s pumpkin spice @ 5.6%. Served with brown sugar and spices on the glass rim which I promptly removed for the tasting. Vanilla yella and a little hazy. Lots of cinny and pumpkin smells but not like pumpkin pie. Flat, with pumpkin taste impressions. Very little bitterness if any. Not bad as a pumpkin beer, but could use more CO2. One of the better flavored pumpkin beers I’ve tasted.

On tap at the rivertowne monroville. Looks like pale lager with a tad of brown in there. I think I smell hints of mint in there but not sure. First taste is mildy bitter but then the bite increases. Seems to be higher in alky but is not ill mannered. Medium to mild linger but easy to take for an octoberfest. One of the more mild tastwise that I have had.
