Pumpkin Beer

[Julius_Van_Der_Beak]

Yes or no? And what kinds have you had?

 

[prplchknz]

never had it so i dunno, but if the place we're going tonight has one i'm trying it and will answer the poll later but if not then i won't.

My favorites are Dogfish Head Punkin, and Weyerbachers Imperial Pumpkin. I have had numerous others.

I haven't found a Pumpkin that isn't disappointing. It never tastes like pumpkin.

Pumpkin shnapps is the best!

I like schanpps. I had some butterscotch schnapps at a ski lodge in Colorado. I joked that it was a real mountain man drink.

Nearly every pumpkin beer I've ever had was too sweet for me. Schlafly used to make a pumpkin porter that I loved - actually the first porter I ever loved! - but I don't think they make it anymore. The other day I tried Southern Tier's Cold Press Coffee Pumking and thought it was pretty good... but still too sweet.

Never had it.

I tried 2 the first i didn't like bluemoon's pumpkin wheat and the 2nd i did which was voodoo ranger atomic pumpkin.

How can beer taste bad IMO? put pumpkin in it... Not a fan. It's just not in my flavor preferences. I don't much care for pumpkin pie either. Jack-o-lanterns, i like those. pumpkin fields just before the harvest at twilight and after dark, yes. Pumpkin spice: nay.

I didn't vote because I've found pumpkin beers I like, but it seems like there are more out there that taste artificial and bad than there are good ones.

Don't suppose you'd consider sharing those ones you liked? I hate to dislike any beer, so I'm open to suggestions...

Smuttynose makes a really good one. Also, Rumpkin from Avery Brewing is expensive (like $15-20 for 12oz) but it's pumpkin beer aged in rum barrels and is very tasty.

I didn't know Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry had a brewery.

 

[Kingu Kurimuzon]

I tried some my dad had a couple months back but I don't remember the name. It was pretty good.

Yes, but it depends on the brand.

Pumpkin cider > Pumpkin beer

ACE pumpkin is vastly superior to anything. Ive had many brands though, but pumpkin goes best in a wheat beer.

I didn't realize ACE made pumpkin cider. I'm mostly familiar with the pineapple.

Fun fact.... did you know Johnny Appleseeds apples were actually used for cider?

I don't like beer, but I try it occasionally, just because I once had one that I liked. It was the same story with wine, back in the olden days.
