12oz stubbie single from Total Wine, Kennesaw, GA, USA.
Oh dear, from the get go things are NOT good here. It pours like soda. A very fizzy pour with a “head” that disappears almost instantly and dies to leave a cloudy, orange body. No body.
Taste is nasty. Earthy, very earthy and something like a clove infused tea. The pumpkin isn’t there for me, but it seems to have been replaced by an all-spice soda. Mouthfeel is weird – fizzy and light, like a diet soda. High carbonation but it’s way too raw.
Aroma is a cross between cloves and antisceptic with the emphasis on antisceptic. Nasty.
Worst pumpkin ale I have ever come across and frankly one of the worst beers, period. Drain pour after 1/4 of the bottle.
