Background: The first (and so far only) pumpkin beer from Jolly Pumpkin, this golden ale is flavoured with pumpkin, cacoa, and spices.
Nose: Dry, tart, with hints of cinnamon and chocolate.
Taste: Dry, tart, with hints of oak and squash. Very negligible spice influence, really.
Overall: Good beer. But while it’s what I expected from a Jolly Pumpkin beer, it’s not really what people expect from a pumpkin beer.
