Beer Sampling - Plymouth Rock Pumpkin Ale

Purchased at Bubble's which is across the street from Rockyard Brewing, the creator of this seasonal bomber. Here are the notes:


Poured into tulip-pint

A - reddish amber; virtually no head; no lacing; very little carbonation

S - caramel; toffee; boozy-ish from the malt I think; spicy

T - sweet bread; moderate pumpkin but heavy on the nutmeg; again, spicy; hints of molasses; some candy corn maybe; cinnamon in there as well

M - it's a little bitey; the molasses hits the back of the tongue adn stays; the spices hit there too; pretty easy to drink given all the spice activity here

O - this was purchased across the street from the brewery; that said, the bomber was $5...pretty solid for that price; I'm a big pumpkin fan in general, so this review is slightly weighted...however, this is towards the bottom third of pumpkin beers I've tried; nothing blew me away here...but a good value beer for sure.

Serving type: bottle
