We're nearing the end of our pumpkin ale journey, and next up is Brooklyn Brewery's Post Road Pumpkin Ale purchased at Vintage Estates.
"Early American Colonialists, seeking natural ingredients for brewing ales, turned to pumpkins, which were plentiful , flavorful and nutritious. Blended with barley malt, pumpkins became a commonly used beer ingredient." This particular brew uses hundreds of pounds of pumpkins that are blended into the mash of each batch. It is 13.5°P and 5% ABV.
Overall average rating: 3.5/10
The color is a light amber with a little orange. The aroma is sweet, with scents of pumpkin, nutmeg, cinnamon, and a little clove. The taste gives us pumpkin, wheat, and a hint of barley.
Shawn- I would rather drink Sierra Nevada Torpedo, which is one of my least favorite beers (I am not a hop fan), 3/10.
Angela- This is my least favorite pumpkin beer out of everything we've tried. It isn't awful, but it's not great, 3.5/10.
Chris- This is middle of the road; it's just not very memorable, 4/10.
