Pours from the 650mL bomber a caramel-orange-ish-copper colour, topped by three fingers of foam that recede fairly quickly to a dense ring and lots of lacing. Not a tremendous amount of visible effervescence.

Smell is pumpkin pie spice, naturally. Clove, nutmeg, cinnamon, pumpkin, and all that jazz. Maybe a touch of vanilla. And some bready malt. Slight yeastiness.

Taste is crisp, with some toasted/roasted bready malts (this almost reminds me of an Oktoberfest with pumpkin spice added), and then the smattering of pumpkin spices: again, nutmeg, clove, cinnamon, graham cracker. Body is light but acceptable, carbonation is a touch higher than accepted but still fine.

All told, a solid example of the style: but then the problem is that there are so many solid examples of the style. Worth trying, but not on my all-time list of favourites.

650 ml big bottle, label as shown.
Pours a clear, copper color with a foamy cream colored head. Fades quickly, minimal lace.
Hint of pumpkin, and spices, cinnamon and nutmeg smell.
Taste of caramel malts, pumpkin spices (same as smell), not much pumpkin flavor, but spices leave a nice finish.
Medium body and carbonation, crisp finish.
A decent pumpkin ale, but have had better.

Appearance - Pours a clear copper with a finger of foamy cream coloured head.

Smell - hint of pumpkin spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, hint of clove), toasted malts, caramel, hint of pumpkin.

Taste - Similar to the aromas. Hint of pumpkin and pumpkin spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, hint of clove), toasted malts, and caramel. The pumpkin spices linger.

Mouthfeel - Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Finishes with the pumpkin spices.

Overall - A pumpkin ale that has the key spices in place, however, I was hoping for more pumpkin in this one.
