Notes:  When you open a bottle of Lakefront’s Pumpkin Lager (Beer) there is a wonderful pumpkin spiced aroma promising a rich pumpkin flavor.  Upon first pour you’re greeted with a light brown semi-transparent body and when properly poured very little head.  Unfortunately from start to finish, the aroma is a significant overstatement of the upcoming flavor.

The flavor can be best described as inoffensive; a fairly forgettable first sip lacking any substantial flavor.  The finish is a smooth but very light pumpkin flavor that lasts a little longer than desired. There is also a substantial lingering sweetness.  I would recommend eating something with some salt to help balance out your taste buds, lest you end up with an annoying taste on your tounge from overexposure.

Wholly inoffensive, I recommend this to anyone worried about a bitter beer.  It lacks almost any bitterness, or flavor for that matter, but belies the 6.0 ABV.  Overall I'd say it's completely average, the only true benefit being it's newby friendliness.
