I had some type of pumpkin beer the other day - I am not a pumpkin beer person.

Yuck.
There are some really fine Pumpkin Beers out there. DFH Punkin' is a solid favorite. Southern Tier out of NY makes some excellent ones you could enjoy as dessert. Pumpking and Warlock.

The only one I've found that I like is this one. I'll drink one or two per season when I see it on tap. Southern Tier makes quality beers overall.

Souther Tier has taken a step back in my eyes. You'll noticed that they changed Warlock, and this year's version is not as good, in my opinion. The ABV is now 8.6% down from 10% last year. To me, it is more spicy (nutmeg) and less sweet. It's much closer to Pumpking, in my opinion.

I'm not a fan of beer that tastes like pie. Luckily, there are many to choose from.
You know, I always thought it tasted like a rich delicious pumpkin muffin. It was almost like I wanted a cup of coffee with it. Sure, it's not an everyday thing, but it's fine around the holidays.

I like my alcohol like my soul - dark and bitter.

I checked for VatAss's post in this thread, but I didn't see it.

Spent the afternoon with son-in-law brewing beer yesterday. He had ribs smoking all afternoon while we brewed an American Strong Ale. It was nice to relax when we were done and all cleaned up with a nice Imperial Stout and some home-made barbecue.

Hmmm . . . I had not noticed that . . . . but now that you mention it, I don't recall it being as good . . .
Ramone is correct, this one is different. Not your average pumpkin beer. . . .

Dark and bitter beers are often the most complex and rich ones. If done correctly, they are full-bodied and well-balanced. The bitterness is offset by their strength, and depth of character. They often get better with age too, losing the harshness of youth as their flavors meld. They become smoother while retaining their considerable strength. Swirled in the glass, they show their rich creamy head which develops long legs as it drips slowly down the inside of the glass.

Picked up a six of this for Thanksgiving day. I had some last year, it's unlike anything else.
It's pronounced Sho-Co-Veza

Mmmmm, wort.
You know what they say; Brewers make wort, but yeast makes beer.

Oskar Blues was one of the only companies with canned microbrews in the beer store in Flagstaff when I floated the Colorado R. through the GC. Dale's Pale and Old Chub were in my alcohol bag in the raft.

Good stuff.
This evening I am having one of these. A gift from my same friends that gave me the tee in my av. I love those bastards.

My sister brought this across the border. It doesn't taste like any beer I've ever had. Though apparently it is according to beeradvocate?
I'm not a fan. I'd rather just get a craft root beer and add rum.
