s/o beer. and fall...

[zelda25]

PIP your go-to fall beer!

This is my very favorite in the whole world. It's generally only available in the fall, so I hoard it while it's available:

I just tried the New Belgium Red Hoptober and it was really good.



But my favorite is a local brewery that makes pumpkin beer that is not sweet at all - very hoppy, but also a strong pumpkin spice flavor.

[basilosaurus]

Oh, pipeline is good. I may have to head to the brewery soon. I'd send you a growler if I could!

I have many favorites b/c fall is awesome. Oktoberfest!!!



This is more winter, but it starts coming out in fall.



And pumpkin. I haven't found a favorite yet, and I only get buffalo bill's in Hawaii, so it's not like I can compare. But I drank a lot of this when visiting my grandparents in ME.

Shipyard pumpkinhead is pretty amazeballs. Long Trail came out with a pumpkin this year and its pretty good too.

And of course. Dogfish Punkin.

Oh and my local brewery's smokehouse lager. Its smoky like a campfire. Mmmm

I love our local brewery's pumpkin ale, but it won't be tapped until October 1. Counting down!

I was probably going to go with Hoptober, I'll have to try the red.

I'm not a beer person, but my husband's current fave is Magic Hat's Ourtoberfest Hex.

Also, I haven't found it in forever, buy Weyerbacher Pumpkin Ale is the best pumpkin beer I have ever had!

I love fall beers. Dunkleweisen, pumpkin ales, any kind of malty/roasty beer - yes please!

[redheadbaker]

First choice: Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin



Second choice: Southampton Pumpkin Ale

I love the buffalo bill's pumpkin. I like dogfish, too, but I'm too lazy to go to bevmo for it. I'm hoping the brewery down the street has something to celebrate the change in season. Their beer is heavenly.

Which now? (you may have told me this and I forgot)

Have you been to Drakes in San Leandro? They're quickly becoming my fave little brewery. They've got a great little barrel house with food trucks, only downside is no kiddos.

[meshaliuknits]

Elevation 66 in El Cerrito. www.elevation66.com/ The food is pretty tasty and it's conveniently walking distance from my house. BabyLiu has been a few times.

I haven't been to Drakes. We don't often go further South than Oakland these days.

Dogfish Punkin- My mom always buys me a case as soon as it's available.


I also love Dogfish's Olde School


And Evo's Rise Up stout (coffee tastes)

[demandypants]

Southern Tier Pumking is the one I look forward to the most this time of year. It is my fav of all the pumpkin beers I have tried.

Hmm. I didnt realize there were so many fall beers! i shall head to the Beer Store today and check them out.

If I find out they are all only available in the US I'm gonna be pissed!

[terpsfan]

Another vote for Dogfish Punkin! I can't get enough of it. Once that runs out I switch to Sam Smith Oatmeal Stout
