Rogue Pumpkin Patch Ale

So, i've just got to get in one more pumpkin beer before the season is officially over.  And what a way to go out.  The Pumpkin Patch Ale from Oregon's Rogue Brewery is one of the best pumpkin ales that i've ever had the fortune of imbibing.  The beer pours a dark amber with a decent, diminishing head on it.  The aroma is a nice mix of pumpkin, malts, and some floral hops, and the taste is a perfect blend of pumpkin spices, cinnamon, nutmeg, caramel, malts, and just enough hops to even the whole thing out.  To be honest, the flavor is what knocks this one out of the park.  The balance of all the ingredients is dead on, giving the brew a fantastic taste.  And it goes down smooth.  Chatoe Rogue?  Chatoe indeed.

Visit the brewer.
