    Less different ones. Same amount of the ones I like. More browns and Marzens.

    I will have about 6oz of a Schlafly and 1/2 a pour of Pumking at some point in next few weeks. Haven't had Elsyian yet but hear they are good, so maybe try that one this season. Otherwise that will be it most likely. Don't really get into the pumpkin beer hype. I'll let the BMC, Blue Moon, Shandy, Not your Father's Rootbeer crowd enjoy the hype-train this year year. I'll instead begin to cut into my overstocked cellar of my bigger ABV cool weather beers and start to ween off the lighter lagers, session IPAs, Gose etc from the summer.

    About the same. I'll drink a bunch and then get tired of it, again this year.

    I'm not letting seasonal creep coerce me into drinking more.

    When it feels like the weather is changing and pumpkins are ripening, then maybe I'll grab some... but just because the time is right.

    More. I went crazy 2 years ago and cut way back last year. This year will be back to normal.

    Same. Last year had a bomber of Warlock. This week picked up a bomber of Epic. Highly doubtful I'll buy more than that.

    Probably the same amount or less (case total at the most). Had Pumking, sitting on some Warlock (which I prefer out of the two), just picked up a Dogfish 4 (which is usually always good). I'll have some Schafly when I am in STL. Looking to try Weyerbacher for the first time, but other than that, maybe a six of Sammy or a few in mixpack. Drinking them in August here is always tough, seems to work better on the cool evenings of fall.

    Every year I pick up a few different packs of pumpkin beer, sometimes more, sometimes less. I always pick up some Dogfish Head Punkin Ale which is my favorite, though the Smuttynose Pumpkin is very good too. I like to mix Smuttynose Pumpkin and Smuttynose Robust Porter, tasty!

    Probably buy the same amount. Been drinking more Oktoberfest. Had two Sierra Nevada Oktoberfest a few nights ago. Delicious!
