Even though the leaves on the trees are rapidly diminishing, fall is still here. We’ve only had one snow storm In Boston so far this year and that’s already enough for me. To keep my fall spirits high I decided to partake in Shipyard’s Smashed Pumpkin Ale.
I poured it into a snifter and heavily enjoyed it. I should also note that the beer was drank at room temperature.
The initial pour left about a quarter of an inch of head and a very pleasant pumpkinny (pumpkinish?) Smell. not spicy or syrupy sweet smelling. It held an Orange amber color after the pour.
The Smell Beget the taste. It was a very solid ale. Pumpkin notes in it but not like drinking liquid pumpkin Pie. It had a very crisp aftertaste and I felt was an excellent beer.
