Went to my local pub and wanted something different. I ordered the pumpkin
ale that was on tap, $3.00 pint. It was nothing special. Very boring
taste, but a nice color. I didn't taste any spice or very much flavor at
all!

Damn - not good news. I had arranged for a friend pick me up six as I
can't get them around here. I had always heard good things about the
Dogfish Ale.

I think one of the best Pumpkin ales I've tried is the Post Road. I am
not a big Pumpkin ale drinker, maybe twice per year tops.

Buffalo Bill's Pumpkin Ale is my current favorite ... like washing down
a mouthful of pie with a nice amber ale.

Blech. I thought the Buffalo Bill's tasted too much like apple cider.

*** ERROR: OUT OF BEER ***

You must have a cold or they poured the wrong beer for you. It is ggod and
spicy and much more interesting to me than most pumpkin ales.

Not really a pumpkin beer, but I was just in Savannah for business and
the Moon River Brewing Co. had a beer made from sweet potatoes called
"Tater". One of the more unique beers I've had. Very little hop flavor,
ruby reddish in color and you can taste the sweetness, but not so much
to overwhelm. Nice when sipped by itself. But then, they rim the glass
much like a margarita, using maple syrup, crushed pecans and pumpkin
spices. Surprisingly good.

Agree. Just had my first pint of this from the tap yesterday. At best, just
a slight hint of spicy pumpkin flavor.
I had heard only good things about this brew, but the flavor was certainly
nothing special. (to me).
This years batch of Blue Moon Pumpkin Ale tasted a little better.
