Pours a rich brown with quite a frothy head from a medium pour. Smells mostly of spices with a bit of pumpkin. The taste is of pumpkin and nutmeg, but since I'm not a fan of brown ales, its not something I can enjoy just because I like pumpkin. Probably good for those who like brown ales though.

From the bottle, it pours a darker amber with a moderate head. Pumpkin pie spices in the nose. The mouth follows the nose with malt coming through along with the aforementioned pumpkin pie spices. Alcohol doesn't overwhelm, so this can be dangerous!

Beautiful deep pumpkin color with average head and very spotty lacing. Aroma is heavy nutmeg and pumpkin pie spice, very overwhelming. Taste flows like the aroma with the dry spice being too much and I get no peach flavoring at all. Chill out some on the spices and let the natural flavors come forth and be bigger players.

Poured a dark reddish brown with a light white head. Had a nice nutty smell. I didn't get a lot of pumpkin or peach, but just enough to make the beer interesting.

Overall, I thought it was a very tasty beer. The pumpkin & peach flavors did not overpower the beer, they were a nice compliment.

Without a doubt, one of the better pumpkin ales I've had in a long time.
