    The owner of Misconduct in Philly brought this out, among other treats, to me and my friends when we were visiting last week and this beer is awesome. Pumpking is my favorite pumpkin beer but this is right up there. the maple syrup gives is a whole nother level of awesome. I found bottles at Foodery in downtown philly and bought a couple to bring back with me.

    I'm really excited to try to Heirloom Pumpkin Barley Wine, but I could only snag one bottle while I was out in CA so I'm gonna wait on it for awhile.

    I have people talking about Cigar City's Good Gourde, and it's rated pretty high. I've been thinking about trying to trade for some... is it worth the effort?

    In Florida, where it's still 90 F in October/November

    1. Smuttynose Pumpkin Ale - light and spiced well
    2. Cigar City Good Gourd - heavier but really well done
    3. none other than these memorable

    Stevens Point Whole Hog Pumpkin. Just finished my first one, and it is awesome. Redefined my thoughts on Pumkin beers. It's Pumking with more Pumpkin flavor and less sweet and graham crackers. Yum.

    I just came in here to say that Whole Hog Pumpkin Ale is probably the best kept secret as far as pumpkin ales go.. I had it for the first time last year and was very very impressed.. glad to see it in bulk around my area this year..

    I just had that a week ago and already bought a half case. So good and it's catching on I think. There's places that have it on tap around the Burgh here and everything.

    Schlafly has always been a slight favorite over Pumking... until I tried Good Gourd this year. Totally blows all the others away.
