4/3/15 Bluepoint Brewery Pumpkin Ale

Bluepoint Brewery Pumpkin Ale

4/3/15

Info: I went to a beer tasting back in July 2014. Bluepoint Brewery was one of the vendors. I liked both their beers so I wanted to review one of their beers.

Country: Long Island NY USA

Brewery: Bluepoint Brewery www.bluepointbrewing.com

ABV: 6.0%

Source: Bottle 12 oz

Look: orangish/Amber, with a little head/foam to top it off.

Feel: It's a little carbonated, but not overly carbonated. (You can see the bubbles in the picture above.)

Smell: There's a distinct smell of pumpkin, and what I think may be cinnamon. 

Taste: It's quite good. Despite the strong smell of pumpkin, the taste of pumpkin is not overpowering. However the spices of the pumpkin is evident.

Opinion: like I said in the taste section, it's quite good. I'm not a huge fan of pumpkin to begin with because in food it can be very overwhelming. (And in beer it is hit or miss, , I missed big time with my home brew) However in this beer, it is not. It's tasty but not too spicy. It is a beer that you can have more than one and still enjoy it. It's a solid 7 out of 10. I'd recommend this to others.
