I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out wonderfully!! I made it for Thanksgiving and everyone loved it. I think I would have liked a stronger pumpkin flavor, but other than that, it was excellent!

I thought this was a great recipe, however, I was looking for something a little more "cheese cake" like. I followed some of the recommendations of other reviews and added 1 more cup of sugar and lessened the eggs to 4. To give it that classic cheesecake taste I added a cup of sour cream. I also added a crust, I halved the recipe and on half used a ground chocolate cookie crust and the other half used a vanilla wafer crust. Then on the chocolate cookie crusts I used toffee candy bar chunks and drizzled melted milk chocolate over them and on the half with vanilla wafer crusts I used a mixed berry pie filling and drizzled melted white chocolate over the top. I sent these off with my boyfriend to a meeting and I got tons of great feedback. One of the guys has a sister who is a professional baker and he said these turned out as good as her cheesecake! Great recipe!! THANK YOU!!

Made exactly as written and was amazing! I am always a bit wary of using recipes with beer because I don't like the taste if it doesn't cook/bake away enough, but this was absolutely amazing. I am a bread lover but my boyfriend can take it or leave it and even he loved this one!
