    Yeah totally. Not sh*tting on FW whatsoever - a deservedly well-respected brewery. But for example, in 18, what exactly does the 3% Wookey J and 2% Double J actually do? I know fans talk about their master-blending capabilities. I just can't quite give them that much credit.

    It sounds like a fun project but I'm not chasing them down as a consumer.

    Oh God yes..... The only thing that pisses me off more than Pumpkin beers is the fact that I still keep trying them, only to find that yep - still don't like them. Worse yet, now they are hitting shelves like in July, which gives me several months to contemplate my poor purchasing decisions. Someone needs to give me a pumpkin beer intervention. Just saying.

    I like pumpkin beers in that they sell a lot to provide the breweries I like money to make the other beers I prefer.

    I don't hate these beers and would drink them again, but I wasn't impressed with them...

    Parabola - tried 2013 and 2014. I get too much of the barrel and alcohol.
    PtElder - It's good, but I have tried at least 10 beers which were just as good if not better.

    Blushing Monk, too expensive and sweet for my tastes.

    Lagunitas hop selection. I love a lot of West Coast IPAs, but for some reason, Lagunitas just doesn't do it for me. And I taste the same thing in most of their beers.

    Hop hunter is horrible. I automatically look down upon hipsters that think it's a good beer.

    • Green Flash West Coast IPA (their regular Imperial IPA is better)
    • Lagunitas Sucks (it was good the first year, and then something changed -- too sweet & malty)
    • Founders CBS (KBS is better and less sticky sweet, although recent releases of KBS have been subpar too)
    • Goose Island BCBS (I admit the Vanilla version was excellent, but plain BCBS is meh)
    • Troegs Nugget Nectar (hit or miss every year; more miss than hit)
    • Great Lakes Chillwave (syrupy sweet mess of an IIPA - I will never understand why this is rated 95)

    Any beer that has fruit, spices, herbs in it! Seriously, who is the guy who started this Pumkin Ale thing. He needs to be disbeered.
