Beer Works: Pumpkin Ale Part 1

Part one of a two part plan to make pumpkin beers. First pumpkin beer, a simple ale with even amounts of spice and gourd flavors. Later I'll get into the second plan, Beer Works Black O'Lantern Pumpkin Stout, but the first beer from them is Pumpkin Works Ale. A very well made ale that balances a brown ale perfectly with all the spices you'd find in any typical pumpkin beer. Some of them are heavy on cinnamon, or all spice or nutmeg but Beer Works blends them all seamlessly in this beer, with just a nice touch of that gourd flavor from the pumpkin. It's not too dessert-y but just a good drinking pumpkin beer. I'm genuinely impressed with this one. Nice job, I might even buy a whole 6er to have as it gets even colder.
