Saranac’s version of the pumpkin style poured a clear, dark orange, light brownish color with a small off white bubbly head.  The nose was rich pumpkin pie with a huge amount of spices.  The body was a little bit lighter then I expected with lots of spices, cinnamon, and a think malt taste.  The finish was lacking and a little bit empty but the spices did linger a bit.  There was a trace amount of hanging lace.  This beer was tasty but a little inconsistent, and a little overdone on the spices.
