No, it’s not fall yet, but that doesn’t mean it’s too soon to whip out the pumpkins! Not sold in stores yet, Harpoon Brewery’s UFO Pumpkin can be bought straight at their breweryies – located in Boston, MA and Windsor,VT.
Their Unfiltered Pumpkin Ale is brewed with pumpkin and spices – with additional spices added.
The label has your standard jack-o-lantern on it (typical of pumpkin brews) with rings around it playing to its UFO name.
This unfiltered ale is cloudy and copper in color. It has a nice pumpkin spice scent. At first sip, the flavor doesn’t really hit you. However, it’s followed with a surprising rush of nutmeg flavor, It’s like Harpoon was okaying peek-a-BOO. (Get the Halloween reference? Okay, so maybe it was a corny joke!)
Lightly carbonated, this brew is very smooth and tasty.
It has an ABV of 5.9 percent.
