I am not a fan of two things
pumpkin ale and Dogfish Head beers, but I gave Dogfish Head Craft Brewery
Punkin Ale, 7.0% a fair shake. I’ve had tree different Dogfish beers and I haven’t
liked any of them so far. Punkin Ale is a brown
brewed with real pumpkins, brown sugar, allspice, cinnamon & nutmeg. Punkin
Ale pours a medium brown color with a one finger quickly fizzing head that
leaves nothing behind. The aroma is strong with cinnamon and nutmeg and
together it makes a strong sweet candy like aroma. This beer smells alright. Taste
is overwhelming with a large amount of cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice with
touches of light pumpkin. The flavor really takes over and just sticks to every
part of your mouth. The mouth feel is full and sweet with a sweet harsh finish
and a sweet after taste of nutmeg and some cinnamon that sticks around killing
any other flavor that comes in contact with your taste buds. I have never like
pumpkin beers and Dogfish Head Craft Brewery Punkin Ale is an F. I don’t like
any pumpkin in liquid form. It is not something I enjoy. The flavor is just too
much and takes over your mouth and sticks around way too long. Well I am still
not a fan of Dogfish Head, and I know that they are quite popular in the craft
beer world, but not with this craft beer drinker. Cheers! Please enjoy
responsibly!
