Another round of trick or treating Pumpkin Beer round 2

Joy, Joy, Joy.  Tonight I had not 2 but 4 pumpkin beers.  Each of which were very different in character and a great divide from last night too.
The first one was Shipyard Pumpkin Head, then on to Dogfish head Punkin Ale.  That finished round 1, then on to round two.  Long Trail Pumpkin Punk'n .
The Shipyard was so soft and smooth, absolutely no bitterness at all.  Semi sweet with lots of pumpkin juice.  Very small hint of spice, not like last night which were total spice bombs. 

Dogfish had the least of the pumpkin flavor actually.  The flavor reminded me more of a pumpkin souffle not a pumpkin pie.  Lovely, light and soft.
The Longtrail offering was also lite and elegant. Just hints of spice, cinnamon, and brown sugar.  More hints of a brown sugar pop tart with hints of pumpkin. 

The Uinta pumpkin was also soft and elegant.  No bitterness and easy to drink. The beer had very small hints of pumpkin with just the right amount of spice.  Easy to drink with a rewarding mouth. 

Enjoy them all and let me know what you think.
By the way, my wife helped me drink through these tonight!  So if you were thinking I finished all four myself,  well.....
