Harpoon UFO Pumpkin

It looks like I have maybe another 3-4 fall seasonals in my keezer.  The one I grabbed to go with dinner tonight was Harpoon UFO Pumpkin.  It's probably been around four years since I've had any UFO beers, and I remember liking the varieties I had well enough, so let's see how the Pumpkin stacks up:

Vittles:
Spice, Herb, or Vegetable Beer
5.9% abv
20 IBUs
~11 SRM

Score:
Appearance: 9/10
Aroma: 20/25
Taste: 34/40
Mouthfeel: 8/10
Style: 5/5
Drinkability: 8/10
Overall: 84/100

Impression:
The beer poured very nicely, and the head retained decently before falling to a slim ring.  It left very little lacing on the glass.  The aroma has a nice malt and pumpkin background, but the main player for the nose is the spice -- it smells warm and earthy, with notes of cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg.  The flavors are much the same, rounded out with a medium-full mouthfeel and a smooth finish.  It's got all the flavors of fall that I love in a good pumpkin ale, but the balance is a little off, since the spices almost obscure the malt and pumpkin flavors.  I'll be hunting the distributors at the end of the season to see if I can pick up a fall variety case of UFO on the cheap.

Cheers!
