Aroma: “Strong, almost overwhelming, spice notes up front, with clove, cinnamon, and ginger dominating. Caramel malt sweetness follows the spices. Nutmeg and a touch of caramel create a nice image of pumpkin pie.”

Flavor: “Lots of spice with notes of cinnamon, ginger, and maybe nutmeg. A touch of caramel malt sweetness, but spices are center stage here. It’s balanced without being too sweet, but a bit dry in the finish. Finish is sweet but not cloying, leaving a spicy aftertaste and medium-low bitterness. Creamy mouthfeel with a substantial carbonic bite.”

Overall: “A tasty pumpkin beer that is sure to please any pumpkin-pie spice fans. A bit more body and sweetness would help balance the spices but otherwise, it’s a well-executed, spicy pumpkin beer that hits dead-center on the style.”
