Ahnapee Brewery Pumpkin Ale
What the brewers say
“Brewed with roasted pumpkin, pumpkin spices, vanilla beans, malts that mimic a pie crust.”
What our panel thought
“Vanilla, caramel, nutmeg, cinnamon nose. The ‘gourd’ aspect comes out in the flavor intermingled with rich caramel malt notes. Leaves a little spice on the tongue in the slightly sweet finish.”
What our editors thought
“Brilliant reddish-copper color. Nose brings the traditional spice Kool-Aid with nutty banana bread—cinnamon and clove. Tangy flavor—again evoking banana and cinnamon—lightly sweet and lightly bitter, dries out nicely.”
