On tap at Jack Mac's. This is a combination dunkel and a pumpkin ale.
The beer pours a dark brown color with a tan head. The aroma is full of nutmeg and cinnamon, with not too much else going on. The flavor is similar. I get some roasted malt and pumpkin notes, but the pumpkin pie spices (mainly cinnamon and cloves) really come through the most. I also get a hint of yeast and some sugar, but it is very faint. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

12 oz bottle pours a dark chestnut color with a small tan head. Not much for retention and lace.
Nose is toffee, pie spice and mild roast. A nice, fairly balanced pumpkin beer. The dunkel aspect comes across surprisingly well and the spices are not too over the top.
The lager base really shows some nice clean malts that go really well with the light pie spice. dunkel base gives it just enough sweetness. Very good beer...subtle yet delicious - something you could drink a couple of in a row.

This beer has no spices whatsoever. No cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg or ginger... no smell of spices and no taste of spices, none; at all. I question any Reviews saying otherwise.
