dogfish pumpkin ale

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.

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.
