Time to review another of the many pumpkin beers that have made it to my refrigerator shelf during this Halloween season. This time up, from Easton, Pennsylvania it's Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin Ale.
This 8.0% Ale poured a nice deep brownish red and gave off a warm, earthy cinnamon pumpkin scent. The taste, while light on pumpkin, did have a very nice spice flavor with a smooth caramel aftertaste.
Overall, I liked this beer because it didn't have the typical, sweet "pumpkin" flavor. The earthy, sweet scent was a nice introduction, the spicy flavor was smooth and the caramel aftertaste wasn't overpowering. So with that, Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin Ale rates 3.5 out of 5 Drunken Jackos.
A cold, weathered hand pierces the rust-laden earth of a late autumn night. Reanimated decay becomes the evening's guide. Masked faces bask in the fiery glow of a jack-o-lantern's illumination. A lifeless finger points the direction toward the next porch-lit house. For this is the night of ghouls and goblins and tricks and treats. This is the night of Hallowe'en...
