Favorite pumpkin ale being mass produced?

[waltzbrewingco]

I've had a few recently and others I recall from last season.
The Dogfish head Punkin comes to mind. Also the Sam Adams Harvest Pumpkin Ale.
Honestly my favorite has been the New Belgium Pumpkick, I believe it had cranberry juice in it as well.
Any worthy if mention that would be relatively easy to find in Atlanta, GA? We have World of Beverages and Total Wine which do have some harder to fins craft beers.

just had some Southern Tier Pumpking it was great.

Still wanting to try the shipyard.

Saranac Pumpkin Ale gets my vote.

 

[bobeer]

Flying Dog's The Fear Imperial Pumpkin ale is my favorite as of now. It usually changes each year though.

Heavy Seas The Greater Pumpkin

had last year's Southern Tier Pumking sitting in my fridge until day before yesterday.

it was floccin' tasty

guys in the brew club who didn't like last year's version thought the aging worked miracles on it

got case of wilhelm scream pumpkin ale from Majic Hat Brewery. nice mix of ale, pumpkin, Cinnamon and nutmeg. very tasty.

Alewerks Brewing Co. out of Williamsburg, VA

I buy some thinking that it's all I'll get, then I end up buying some more.

Southern Tier's Pumpking and Warlock are my 2 favorites. Arcadia Ales' Jaw Jacker is really good too.

UFO - Unfiltered Pumpkin Ale

100% hands down for me. Love.

Not sure if Pumking and Warlock are available in Atlanta, but they are my 2 favorites as well. When i want something less "imperial" and more pumpkin pie like, It's Stevens Point Whole Hog.

Warlock and Pumpking are fantastic. Shipyard's Pumpkinhead is also quite good.

Flying Dog's The Fear Imperial Pumpkin Ale

 

[BreezyBrew]

Terrapin pumpkinfest should be easy to find. Really like that one. I enjoyed Cigar City Good Gourd the best but it's on the expensive side.

 

[grizzly2378]

I tend toward pumpkin stouts or porters. Having said that, Alaskan Pumpkin Porter and Wasatch Black o Lantern Stout are both good.

Just last night I had one of Epic Brewing's Fermentation Without Representation Imperial Pumpkin Porter. Definitely my favorite pumpkin beer this year.

 

[HomebrewCraig]

Southern Tier Warlock. Pumpking is good, Warlock is amazing.

Where is Southern Tier Brewery? I've never heard of it. Interested to try it since there have been several recommendations for it

Southern Tier is in Lakewood, New York. Not sure how far they distribute, but their beer is all over Ohio.

If you have never had anything from Southern Tier, you're missing out, they're one of my favorite breweries!

Yeah can't say I've ever seen any here in GA. Is it something in your region that you can get at Publix or Kroger? In my town several grocery stores carry a small selection of craft beer but for the most past I have to go to a special liquor store like Total Wine, World of Bev., etc

[Peruvian802]

Weyerbacher, Pumpking, and Dogfish are all much too sweet. Shipyard has a ginger beer type taste, but it's not overwhelming so I like it the best.

 

[Brew252]

Anyone had the Fall Hornin' by Anderson Valley? That's probably my favorite even over pumking. It's a little darker with what seems like some dark crystal malts in there that really contribute to the spice character. Delicious!

 

[MattCee]

Southern Tier does distribute in Atlanta. If you can't find any at your normal spots, Hop City and Mac's both stock pumpking and warlock.

 

[Diaperload]

Southern Tier can even be found here in Oregon.

Hop City and Macs? Gotta find those places! Didn't known about them. Thanks

 

[RJBanks]

Souther Tier Pumpking, Alewerks Pumpkin Ale and Jack O Traveler Pumpkin Shandy

I think Stevens Point Whole Hog might be the most underrated Pumpkin Beer out there.

 

[70ls1nova]

I agree. I never heard of it, but when I had it, it is really good. But, it depends what you're looking for in a pumpkin beer. Whole hog is the one I go to when i really want that pumpkin pie flavor in a beer.

 

[shaneshepherd]

My all time favorite is the St Arnold Pumpinator. I've heard that the Anderson Valley Fall Hornin' is really great, but I can't seem to find any before it sells out each time they get it. Currently drinking Dogfish Head Punkin Ale...not bad, but was hoping for something meatier.

 

[waltzbrewingco]

Just tried the Southern Tier Pumpking. I must admit it wasnt what I expected. Lots of vanilla.

 

[ArizonaGoalie]

Shipyard's elevated ABV "Smashed Pumpkin" is absolutely phenomenal. I believe it's only on draft or 22oz bottles, at least here in San Diego. Damn it's good. 8.5% I believe, so almost double their Pumpkinhead.

 

[dobes]

the southern tier pumking and the arcadia jaw jacker were my 2 favorite pumpkins, but this year i think both have fallen off a bit. Not sure why the ones i got were bad but the arcadia was bad tasting and the ST was just not how i remembered it. So now i am gonna say that the punkin ale by dogfish is now my favorite.
