Maybe I'm just a jerk but it really frosts my hinder when breweries release their seasonals a couple months before they are actually in season. What is with all the pumpkin beers and Octoberfest beers being out in mid-August? That means they would have been brewed in July. Where are people getting pumpkins in July?? I thought the point of seasonals was to use the ingredients when they were available or at their freshest.
Part of why I like seasonals is the anticipation that goes with waiting for them to be released "in season". Releasing your fall seasonal in August or your summer seasonal in March is like the beer equivalent of stores putting their Christmas stuff out October 1st.
For shame I say. Lousy corporations (and breweries for that matter)!
