The beer pours a translucent reddish-brown colour with a creamy tan coloured head. Lacing is very generous. The aroma is light bready notes, caramel, and plenty of pumpkin pie spices. The mouthfeel is medium bodied, somewhat oily, and carbonation is average. The flavour is bread, caramel, and light pumpkin spice.

Tall can from LCBO. A bit late with this one but oh well. 😛 Pours a huge frothy beige head with thick dirty lace and has an amber brownish appearance. Aromas of nutmeg and pumpkin spice are most noticeable at first with a bit of earthy hops and hints of cinnamon. Flavours are mostly the pumpkin spice followed by notes of nutmeg, caramel malt, earthy and herbal hops. Some mild wheaty notes.

Amber colour with a very slight haze, and golden highlights. The head is frothy, light-beige, average lasting with some mild foamy spot. Pumpkin aromas with nutmeg, some cinnamon, hints of allspice and purée. The taste is of a pumpkin beer, but lighter tasting which works well for a lager. Eventually, banana-wheat is felt on the tongue. All well-brewed, and easier to drink than most richer pumpkin brews. Well done, but might get a little much with that wheat sweetness.
