    This is my favorite time of the year, I love Oktoberfest and Pumpkin brews! It means football, it means the world series, it means the best type of beer styles! None of my friends drink anything other than BMC, so they don't understand why I get so happy when I start to see the fall lines.

    I love Saint Arnolds Pumpkinator!

    ST Pumking & Weyerbacher's Imperial Pumpkin Ale are my favs so far, although I have about 7 different ones in my basement waiting on me!

    I finally have a way of cellaring beers, so this year I can start a great seasonal cellar collection.

    Dogfish Head Punkin is very tasty, they need to hurry up and get back to Indiana distribution

    I love Good Gourd! But if it doesn't have to be a pumpkin brew during fall, I'm all in for some Backwood's, Breakfast Stout and some BCBS.

    Fall might be my favorite season, but I think winter might have my favorite brews.

    I have actually never had a breakfast stout. I need to find a good Tejas brewery that makes one.

    Let us not forget about the other style of fall seasonals, the fresh hop/wet hop ales.

    I had a chance to try Jack's Abby Copper Legend. After one sip it became my favorite fall brew.

    Damnit you guys, my list is growing!!!!

    I just had last night Post Road Pumpkin Ale and it wasn't for me. Too hoppy for a pumpkin beer at least for my tastes, now I have 4 left I don't want to drink.

    I also had a Sam Adams Hazel Brown. I loved it! Not pumpkin but tastes like a Heath bar. Toffee, Hazelnut...wouldn't want to drink more than one at a time though.

    Love fall beers. Pumking and good gourd are two of my favorite pumpkin beers. I also love breakfast stout and BCBS.

    I sadly missed this last year. Do you know when it should start showing up in stores? Seems like every other pumpkin beer is already out, but not this one.

    If you do this then the magic of the season will soon disappear for you. Having seasonal beers available whenever you want them ruins the effect does it not?

    Its not a big enough area to do more than 20 beers at any time. So since I am already working on stouts and barley wines I would not be able to do more than 10 at the most.

    They usually start distributing early in September.

    I'm partial to Brooklyn Brewery Post Road, although I need to check out Pumpking apparently, my local Total Wine just got in three palates of JUST Pumpking bombers. Also, my friends have been telling me it's a must.
