Shipyard Brewing Company
Pugsley's Signature Series
Smashed Pumpkin - 9% ABV
On an earlier review of Shipyard's Pumpkinhead I mentioned my quest to try
Pugsley's Signature Series - Smashed Pumpkin. I have liked the Signature Series in the past and I thought the Smashed Pumpkin would not disappoint. My quest was done in vain.
I knew I was not going to be blown away as soon as I opened the bottle. I did not pick up on any particular spice...or any spice! Once poured with a heavy hand the head was about one inch high. The color had a hazy orange hue with dancing bubbles running up the glass.
According to the bottle's description the beer has a big-bodied beer...not so much in my opinion. I thought it was on the lighter side and lacked the level of greatness I was expecting. This beer is not by any means Miller Lite quality but as a craft beer it was a miss.
Shipyard once again made me want to jump ship!!! No SHIP! It was better than the fruity pebble Pumpkinhead but it took on water next to Southern Tier's Pumking.
Cheers!
