Decided to crack one of these since I just added spices to my pumpkin ale in secondary.

This actually isn't bad for what it is, which is a typical pumpkin ale. It is a bit lighter than many I've had, and pretty drinkable. The thing that stands out to me is the ginger, and not just ginger, but fresh grated ginger which I think is the wrong way to go in a pumpkin ale. Fresh ginger's great, but in a ginger-ale (or Asian food) sorta way. I prefer the way dry ground ginger comes across in a pumpkin beer, or pie for that matter. Good beer, but the wife's getting the other 5.
