Poured from a 12oz can
On the pour, i was a bit surprised with how light the color is here, being essentially light pumpkin pie color. The head is actually quite attractive on this one and not too excessive and looks soft. It even tries to lace.
Aroma is like a pumpkin spiced malt liquor. Or perhaps a spicy angry orchard. Its not as off-putting as a lot of the others smell, but it doesn't make me think beer. Can smell alcohol. Takes on a sour note as it warms.
This is one of the better tasting ones for sure. The general sickeningly sweet flavor hides nicely behind the spice flavors and a touch of pumkin. I hate to say it, but why is this the beer that I am enjoying the most out of the pack? I can actually taste malt even. I can still pick up that seemingly signature slightly savory Minhas funk however. Not overwhelmingly pumkin-y like a lot of pumpkin beers.
Feel is very carbonated which I'm sure is helping this beer out a lot. It has a medium long finish but there's so much carbonation the carbonation bite sticks around throughout the finish. Relatively dry, but feels heavier than it is.
Overall I'd say I was pleasantly surprised here. Not nearly as funky as the rest I've had but certainly not something I'd grab a 6-pack of.

12 oz can served in a Belgian snifter.
Appearance. Poured with a dark, orange-amber colored body that is topped by a decent off-white head.
Aroma. Nice mix of bready grains, spices (featuring cinnamon), and pumpkin.
Flavor. Does not entirely live up to the aroma but it does avoid the problem of over spicing that is too common in pumpkin beers. Mild bitterness.

Obviously being a pumpkin beer that is the main flavor here. Just a bit of hopiness but not really sweet. Not what I would drink every day but this is the season and this one is good, I like it. Bright copper color, a little foam. Body is a bit creamy. It is pleasant to drink.
