Both the wife and I were quite excited to try this one. We love Beau's products in general, we love
Hefeweizens, and we love pumpkin beer. The combination seemed made in heaven. Unfortunately the best thing about this one is the label (as Beau's branding is excellent as usual). The sweet dessert like flavours of the hefe are present throughout, followed by the savoury and spicy notes of the pumpkin and spices. Not entirely unpleasant, but it just didn't work for me. Kind of like drinking a banana milkshake and then going into a chunk of roasted pumpkin afterwards. It might be for some people but not really for us.
Definitely worth trying, definitely more hefe than pumpkin so don't let it scare you off. Just don't expect to have your doors blown off.
