Backstory: It is located in southern Delaware and was first released in November 1994. The cool part is that it is named after a locally-known event - Punkin Chunkin, which from what I gather, is where people build devices to launch pumpkins into the air and then into the ground. Sweet! It is a full-bodied brown ale brewed with real pumpkin, brown sugar, allspice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. It is 7% ABV.
Overall average rating: 7.2/10
The appearance reminds Chris of Blue Moon - it's translucent and orangey amber in color. The aromas are allspice, pumpkin, cinnamon, and light nutmeg. The taste gives a front tongue bite, a slight metallic taste, and a clean, crisp finish. We taste brown sugar, molasses, and a little wheat.
Shawn- I like that the flavors are poignant and not overpowering. You can definitely taste the flavors without them consuming what you're tasting, 7/10.
Angela- I would definitely drink this again. It has a good taste and a good pumpkin flavor, 7.5/10.
Chris- I get more out of the smell than the taste, though I think it is well-balanced. The metallic taste knocks down my score a bit, 7/10.
