About This Beer

The Great Punkin Spice is Pontoon’s yearly Pumpkin Imperial Brown Ale, inspired by the Charlie Brown Halloween Special: The Great Pumpkin! Just one look at the can art, and you’ll be brought right back to watching Charlie Brown in your jammies on a cool fall night.

Tasting Notes

Each sip is fabulously sweet and creamy, with ribbons of woody vanilla and rich espresso. The sweet potato provides a silky mouthfeel, making each cinnamon-dusted swig practically irresistible.

Tastes like a brown ale with spices. I like that the brown ale didn’t get lost.

This one is descent… Most of the pumpkin-spice beers have been undrinkable. This is the 1st one that I have finished.

Well... It tastes like a compound of cinnamon, nutmeg, pumpkin, and caramel (i.e. pumpkin spice). It's a bit too sweet for my taste, but I bet people that really like pumpkin spice or sweet beers would love this.

Solid pumpkin ale. Would buy again, probably.

Deliciously malty…somewhere between a stout and a lager. Maybe a bit heavy on the cinnamon, but it only serves to enhance the vegetal pumpkin that rises in the finish. An enhanced version of the classic.

Loved the perfect balance of the pumpkin, cinnamon and marshmallow! It was just the right amount of sweetness!

Smells like a slightly spiced brown ale. Plenty of rich, sweet pumpkin spice flavors with a nicely balanced malty brown ale. Sweet, syrupy, lingering finish. Honestly, this might be one of the better pumpkin ales I’ve had. Not bad at all.

Not bad but nothing overly spectacular as far as pumpkin beers go.
