In this beer blog, we are going to get into the fall seasonal from Blue Point Brewing.  It is their Pumpkin Ale.  I know it is another pumpkin beer.  This one is a little different.  If you read my earlier beer blogs on this brewery, you know the history of this brewery.  If you have not, please, read those beer blogs to get know this brewery.  Let us get into the beer.

It has a dark copper to light amber color with constant white head on this pumpkin ale.  The smell has notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and light pumpkin in this Fall Seasonal.  The taste has cinnamon and nutmeg in the front, however, there is a light pumpkin notes on the back half of the drinking experience.  The pumpkin lives in the aftertaste.  This is a pretty drinkable beer.

Here is a description from their website (www.bluepointbrewing.com):

According to Linus there are 3 things never to discuss with people: religion, politics, and the Great Pumpkin. Our Pumpkin Ale, on the other hand, has made quite a buzz from New Hampshire down to Florida. Every season has its pleasures. Harvest your own with our Pumpkin Ale and reap all that Autumn has to offer. Brewed with pumpkins from only the most sincere patches, this seasonal brew is golden orange, crisp and delicious, with an innocent hint of cinnamon and nutmeg that articulates our favorite season. Gather with friends and family and enjoy the change of seasons while savoring a pint of Pumpkin Ale. Just like the leaves, it’s gone after Thanksgiving.

Closing, I know what you are asking.  Why is this pumpkin beer different from the rest on the market?  It is pretty simple.  This pumpkin ale gives you the pumpkin but it is not over the top in your face that goes with the spices.  You taste the nutmeg and cinnamon up front and the pumpkin at the end of the drinking experience.   I love this beer for that because it makes it pretty drinkable unlike most pumpkin beers.  I believe this is the best pumpkin beer on the market or one of the best on the market.  I recommend you trying this beer.  Go get some!  Drink it!  Enjoy it!  Metal it!  \m/

Cheers!
