    There are two beers that I most look forward to around autumn, Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin and Hoppin Frog Frog's Hollow. The Frog's Hollow is great, but is a bit more pricey than the Weyerbacher per ounce. I'll probably go through at least half a case of Imperial Pumpkin this fall, with a few Frog's Hollows mixed in.

    Don't worry, Miller bought the rights to labels and recipes. If there is anything from MBC, outside of the Celis line up, worth Millers time to bring back it is probably Screaming Pumpkin. It was never my favorite but I suspect it will be seen again.

    Used to be ST Pumking but last year Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin was absolutely outrageously good!! Already see it here in NJ!! I love pumpkin beers but i agree....it's too early!!

    River Horse Hipp'O'Lantern is my favorite and never gets any love
    I am not big on any of their other offerings but this one's great and (as a new jersey-an) is a great bargain
    Very comparable with Weyerbacher's, which is my second favorite by a hair

    I agree, I really enjoy rumpkin. I hope to grab a few bottles this year, to drink and bake with.

    I am absolutely looking forward to the oktoberfests! I'm thankful there's at least some made year round to tide me over until fall.

    I really like pumpkin beers, so I'm going through this thread and taking notes lol. Anyways, Post Road is a really good pumpkin beer. Brooklyn=very underrated brewery.

    My favorites are ST Pumking and DFH Punkin. I'll buy those every year.

    I didn't buy Weyerbacher's or Brooklyn's last year because I was trying so many other beers I'd never had before, but I'm looking forward to getting back to them this year. I'm also looking forward to trying Long Trail's new Imperial Pumpkin.

    That looks good--when does it normally come out? I've seen their pumpkin one during the fall, but not that. Maybe it's just a limited distribution?

    I too have had enough of the summer beers, and I'm really looking forward to crisp autumn days. My fall favorites are ST pumpking, cisco's pumple drumkin, dog fish head punkin and I love Sierra nevad:
    Tumbler, many fond memories.

    I did a large blind pumpkin tasting with a lot of people and was the by far the winner. Head and shoulders above the rest, over beers like pumpking, punkin, and rumpkin. Amazing beer. It will be my thanksgiving beer this year if I can get some from my buddies in Florida.

    Although I love Pumking, I have to give props to Cape Ann Brewing's Imperial Pumkin Stout. Really looking forward to enjoying that one again this fall.

    Not for sure if you left out the beer name intentionally as a joke or not.
