New Belgium Voodoo Ranger Atomic Pumpkin

This 6.4% ABV pumpkin beer is from New Belgium Brewing of Fort Collins, Colorado. It is a special release in their new Voodoo line of beers. 

The beer pours copper and amber with an orange tint. There is a short head of white foam. The aroma is pumpkin pie and pumpkin bread, lots of pumpkin filling and fall spices. The taste follows the aromas, hitting the same notes, but adding in a pleasantly burning moderate heat at the end. There is sweetness, some toasted grain, and then the pepper heat. The peppers in this add heat without much pepper flavor. The beer drinks smooth and soft. This is a nice take on the pumpkin beer.
