12oz brown bottle with no freshness date.

LOOK: Hazed amber

SMELL: Dusty spice, pancake batter, pumpkin.

TASTE: Wet, lighter body, light malt, bready, spice, faint pumpkin, clean alcohol, grainy.

Sort of like a one colored jigsaw puzzle, all the pieces are there and fit but there isn't much to it. The spice, pumpkin and beeriness just don't wow nor landing equally drinkable.

12oz bottle taken from a sampler pack

cloudy orange brown look with a small frothy film. smell is pumpkin pie, wheat, and red wine. taste is crisp wheat beer(citrus), creamy pumpkin pie filling, with a bitter/waxy finish and hints of clove/nutmeg.

overcarbonated wheat beer with decent pumpkin flavor, but a poor finish. not terrible, but could have been done much better.

This beer is just OK. Not something to write home about. It has a nice color. An average head. I did not pick up any wheat taste or smell at all. The punpkin taste seemed to me to be by addition of pumpkin spices off the supermarket shelve. I liked that it was sweeter than most. It is a nice drinkable beer but not something I want to have again.
