Blue Moon Brewing CompanyGolden, Colorado
APPEARANCE: 2.5/3
White, foamy head that fades fast. Crisp orange-brown color.
AROMA: 3/4
Sweet–all malt. No hop aroma. Caramel apple character, some nuttiness.
TASTE: 6.75/10
Hop/Malt Balance: 2.5/4: Malty, fades to a slight bitter finish. No hop flavor.
Aftertaste: 2/3: Very little of the promised spice. SLIGHT pumpkin sourness, very subtle clove/spice at the front.
Mouth-Feel: 2/3: Full mouth-feel, effervescent, fairly dry.
OVERALL: 2/3: It's an amber–if they didn't say pumpkin on the label, we wouldn't have thought of it. A bit overcarbonated, but a good, crisp fall beer.
TOTAL: 14/20–I'll Try A Pint
Matt: I was hoping for more spice, but it was not to be. A decent amber, that's about it.
Ben: A good amber, good for a Coors product. Not overwhelming pumpkin, but that's as it should be.
