3.9/5
AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
22 ounce bottle into tulip, 2011 release. Pours crystal clear golden orange color with a small off white head with decent retention that reduces to a thin lacing ring. Minimal lacing on the glass. Aromas of big cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, pumpkin, clove, brown sugar, and breadiness. Very nice and balanced aromas here. Taste of bread, cinnamon, allspice, ginger, nutmeg, clove, and pumpkin. Lingering notes of pumpkin, spices, and breadiness on the finish. Medium carbonation and body; with a fairly creamy mouthfeel and nice smooth drinkability. No alcohol noticed other than a slight warming on the finish. Overall a really nice pumpkin ale, with nice balance of flavor and smooth drinkability.
I decided to re-rate with this years batch. All around tasty stuff. Very nice balance of flavors.
