Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin Ale

I just drank this a couple nights ago. It tasted pretty good, but I wanted more pumpkin than spices. For me, the cinnamon dominated the taste.

What's your favorite pumpkin beer?

I hear Southern Tier and Dogfish Head brew some nice pumpkin beers.

I just cracked open a 1 year old Souther Tier Pumking I have been saving in my basement. I have never aged any Southern Tier beers this long before and was pleased upon opening. It still had a nice spice aroma and the alcohol had calmed down a bit lending a smoother palate. The spice was also still fairly moderate in the flavor but not as heavily noted as in the nose. Definitely got more ginger coming through after the long aging.
