Follow Strike Kings advice and drink Southern Tier- some of the best craft beers around.... their Imperial Chocolate Stout is insane

Glad you like..They make some incredible brews. If you can find them, try them...

Southern Tier is good, although I'm not a fan of their big pumpkin beer.

For readily available micro in a six pack, Victory is hard to beat. Rogue is also excellent.

After I discovered Dogfish Punkin I have a hard time with other Pumpkin Ales. Some are good ... but nothin seems to quite come close.

Any Unibroue fans? I scored a few bottles of Quelque Chose a few months back. Last week I tried it hot and in a mug.....OMFG is all I am going to say!

magic hat octoberfest. yummm had it the other day at the yard house in dedham place. great place for micro's tons of taps. 200 allegedly from what my co-worker just said

Dogfish pumpkin is one of my favs. Most of their beers are excellent, if a bit on the malty side.

I've been a Unibroue fan for a long time, even have some of their glasses with the decal completely worn off. I know...that's pretty profound :hihi:

Perhaps the only North American brewery who can consistently brew a Belgian inspired product.

i have now been on a pumpkin beer kick and luckily my little lady brought home a mixed six of pumpkin brews. southern tier, dogfish head, post road, etc and the big surprise which i cant wait to taste woodchuck pumpin cider...

I enjoy many types of beers and many different styles of brewing but I just cannot get into a true belgian style beer... does not agree with me

Murpheys stout has been my October beer

please everyone... dont wate your money on a woodchuck pumpkin cider far too weird tasting.

Murphy's stout on the other hand... game on- great beer

Ooooh, pour 2/3rds of your favorite ale, and 1/3rd Woodchuck pumpkin afterward and have a pint of Spooky Snakebite ;)

Shipyard Pumpkin Ale (When you can find it). Most places are sold out until next year.

I think we would get along just fine! ;)
 

oh and I recently discovered Goose Island......the Honkers ale is quite nice! IPA is good too but I kind of burnt myself out on IPAs (dont ask its a long story!)

Of you are ever in the area Cardosa's in Fall River and in New Bedford both have 6-packs... (spot burn, I know)

Im now into a Fisherman's Imperial Pumpkin Stout - Cape Ann Brewing Co.... all I can say is wow

Are you guys talking about the Shipyard Pumpkinhead? I just cracked a 22 of the Shipyard Smashed Pumpkin, and all I can say is wow...

Another great place to find a great variety of beers is Allen's in Portsmouth.If Glen doesn't have it he will order it for you.

Yep, and decent prices as well.

Shipyard is the easiest pumpkin beer to come by. Definitely the most popular. I'm surprised you can't find it. If you have a Stop and Shop with a beer section in it they will have it. Shipyard has been showing up in more and more resteraunts and bars. It's significantly better on draft. I'll pass on the rim job. It's good stuff. I'm loving the pumpkin beers this year. None of them hold a candle to Dogfish but I've also really renoyed Fisherman's Brew Pumpkin Stout. Definitely worth a try.

I stockpiled a bunch of Pumpkin beer and Octoberfests for Turkey Day. Wish you could get that stuff later into fall.
