    Anyone know when this should be out? I know the Dark Pumpkin Sour is out, but I was wondering when this lands. Cheers!

    Not sure what it's like at shops but I've bought it online at CraftShack.

    One of the best beers I've ever had. I bought as much as I could find last year; even have one left (unintentionally - it was hiding!!). Looking forward to trying some fresh again this year. :sunglasses:

    Around Bay Area there is tons of Almanac on shelves due to their prolific production this summer. I'm looking forward to a side by side with last years vintage, which was one of my favorite pumpkin beers and barleywines.

    Didn't get to try it last year, hoping to be able to trade for it.

    I loved this beer last year. It was one of the first I tried from Almanac and I've still got a 2013 in the cellar. It was unclear to me whether or not they were releasing it this year or if their Dark Pumpkin Sour was taking it's place this fall (couldn't find any details of its release awhile back) but it looks like they've updated their Heirloom Pumpkin page with "Autumn 2014" :slight_smile: http://www.almanacbeer.com/ourbeer/heirloom-pumpkin/

    Had this beer on Halloween night and Thanksgiving last year. If it's consistent, could be a yearly thing for me.
