Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

Poured from 12oz bottle, I was very dissapointed with this brew, pours a hazy golden amber with no head or lacing to speak of, the aroma is sweet but nothing that blows you way, the taste is very unbalanced for a pumpkin ale and is not all that great, pass.
Poured a light amber color. Head dissipated quickly. Fizzy though. scent of nutmeg and pumpkin. Taste cinnamon and nutmeg. Light sweetness and medium-lite sourness. Lighter body. Easy to drink. Not much taste there, abrupt. Just ok
Wonderful pumpkin ale that actually has balance pumpkin spice flavors and bitter ale elements. This is one of the better pumpkin ales Ive had, right up there with DogFish Head.
