A spicy finish balances the sweet start of this seasonal favorite. Orange in color with the delicious taste and aroma of pumpkin pie!

Had on tap in a pint glass at BJ's in webster, TX. It looked like a slightly orange ale, unremarkable in almost every way. Smelled slightly of pumpkins and spice. It tasted the same, pumpkins and spice, fairly sharp attack, slightly bitter finish. It was light on the tongue with an average aftertaste. In all, it's a completely average pumpkin ale. I've had better and worse, this is about dead middle.

As a huge pumpkin fan, when I saw this at Grocery Outlet on the Central Coast, had to try. Was so outstanding, purchased all remaining stock, 2 cases. Cellars well, has exceptional taste of pumpkin puree, spices and a slight sour finish, reminiscent of whipped cream. Like true pumpkin pie, not overly sweet or spicy, but tempts the palate for another taste. This is so good I would move to Texas for it.

This is like eating liquid pumpkin bread. Closest replication to the real thing I've had

A: Little to no head, amber, translucent, a bare ring of foam and no lacing.
S: Smells of must and nutmeg.
T: Nutmeg, cinnamon, bitter aftertaste.
M: Bitter bite on the tongue, medium-light bodied.
O: Disappointing. Between the musty nose and otherwise unsophisticated nutmeg and cinnamon flavors, not compelling.
