Natt-o-lantern (Pumpkin Natural Light is a thing?)

So, what the hell is this exactly?

 

While everything I seeing so far is just packaging, I think the main reasoning for the box is so people can cut out the eyes of the jack O lantern on the box, put a candle in it and display it proudly on their fraternities porch.

 

Packaging nothing more, nothing less.

 

Why do I also see a surge in frat house fires?

 

agreed seasonal packaging

 

No. No we don't need more pumpkin beers. Especially from Natty.

 

I like Pumpkin Beers, but we definitely don't need more. There are tons and tons of them now. It's not like 2003 where there were only a couple common ones. It's also one of those styles where 90% of them are indistinguishable from the rest.
What we need is for Schlafly's Pumpkin to go nationwide and for most of the others to go away.

 

Most likely this. I remember the packaging around graduation time had a card format where you can put a to: and from: and a big CONGRATS on the side. Good job college grad heres a 30 of the cheapest beer we could find!

 

From SB Nation on Natt-o-lantern...

"Close your eyes. Taste it. We are so very sorry."

 

Can't be a pumpkin beer. It's already September. Way too late.

 

Not going to lie, this package label is screaming for me to buy it. Damn subliminal messages!

 

My liver started to quiver and panic at the site of all of those 30 packs!!!!!!

 

Each 30 pack comes with a roll of toilet paper and bottle of aspirin, cost = $10.99

 

Someone actually got paid to design that box...what have I done with my life?

 

Reminds me of a candy bar wrapper for halloween. Like the snickers pumpkin wrapper.

 

Is there a pumpkin beer bubble? You betcha!. If people begin to try new beers because of pumpkin beers, that's great. Realistically, in a great retail location, these beers really move. There are always leftovers and buying quantities is very dicey. It's like Beaujolais Nouveau in it's heyday; stack it high and let it fly. Then the stuff sat in back rooms collecting dust, and the "main" producers captured the Nouveau ground for good- albeit greatly reduced in sales volume across the board. Selling through quantities of well chosen pumpkin beers is a great challenge that's getting tougher with new beers everyday.

 

Couldn't agree more. I was at my local the other day and mostly glossed over all of the pumpkin beers. I picked out a few singles of one of my favorites from last year, and after a couple I was all set.

Luckily one of our brewpubs has a pumpkin fest in late October, so I can scratch my pumpkin itch all in one night, rather than buying various pumpkin beers at the liquor store. I'd rather save my money for the Oktoberfests.

 

Look for new Belgium pumpkick , blue moon pumpkin ale, Samuel Adams pumpkin ale

 

I can't believe this thread has lived this long
