Pours a murky orange-brown with a 1 inch fizzy tan head that settles to a thin film. Random streaks of lace form on the glass on the drink down. Smell is of malt, pumpkin puree, and pumpkin pie spices (especially cinnamon gum). Taste is of malt, pumpkin, clove, nutmeg, and cinnamon gun. Mild spice bitterness on the palate after each sip. This beer has a higher level of carbonation with a crisp and clean mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good pumpkin beer but the cinnamon flavor reminds me too much of chewing gum.

Appearance: Super hazy orange-brown.
Smell: Spicy, yeasty.
Taste: Plenty of yeast and spice (nutmeg, cinnamon). Some wheat. Not really much pumpkin, which I do not mind!
Mouthfeel: Medium body with plenty of carbonation.
Overall: Not a bad low ABV beer to have on a cold day. Tastes like thanksgiving, without being absurdly pumpkin-filled.
