    Wow. Is that how all of their releases are?! Maharaja is always a month+ old before it gets here. I'd be pissed if I lived in CO and had to wait even longer than that.

    Its all hearsay at this point. Just stuff I've read on BA. I heard uncle jacobs was available out of state before I could get it here also. But again, I haven't verified that through avery or anything. All I know is I will be there for rumpkin this year just so I can get mine. Oud floris hit over a month ago and I am still waiting to see it on shelves.

    Schlafly all the way. Cigar City Good Gourd is pretty solid too, as is DFH Punkin'.

    I'm going to admit that after trying a lot of different pumpkin beers (mostly those with lower ABVs), I'm usually content with a six-pack of Samuel Adams' offering. I like their Octoberfest a lot, too. Now if only they would also put Old Fezziwig in six packs, too...

    There was(is) so much ST Pumking around near me, that I'm still buying it for $4/bottle and enjoying the hell out of it now and again. Especially with a 1/4 shot of dark rum in it!

    A tie between
    1. Pumpkinator 1. Schlafly These are two very different beers, as Schlafly brews a more traditional pumpkin and St. Arnold's Pumpkinator is an extreme imperial pumpkin stout. Both are amazing and up and coming.

    2. Weyerbacher
    3. Pumking
