    Go with Southern Tier Pumking. I've heard you can still find cases of 2013 on the shelf for half off! :wink:

    That sounds like a fun experiment. As someone who has enjoyed Creme Brulee and Choklat I may have to try mixing those with Pumking (one of the few pumpkin beers I really enjoy).

    I have not seen this before. Judging by how well lauded it seems to be in the reviews, it may force me to come out of my pumpkin beer embargo.

    i'm not a pumpkin beer fan but after last year it's my new tradition to have one of these after getting through another night of Halloween trick or treating with the boy, already have a batch 2 waiting for this year

    If you are looking for a stout that's heavy on the pumpkin pie spices but isn't hella sweet like Warlock, I'd recommend this offering from Spring House:

    Fairly limited distro, but it won our pumpkin stout blind tasting last year. And was also my personal favorite of the bunch (the remainder of the bomber *accidentally* got poured down my gullet. By me.)

    Don't know where you could buy one but you can probably make one in your kitchen by mixing stout, pumpkin ale and half&half.

    Not the highest rated, but probably the highest rated pumpkin beer ever, by me. I buy a ton every year. I'll trade you 1:1 if you don't get it there.

    OP, doesn't the half and half curdle and/or give you horrible gas once combined with any beer though? I mean, assuming you were actually being serious...

    Goddamn I want to try this beer so much.

    I don't generally care for pumpkin beer, but Elysian Dark o' the Moon is a solid pumpkin stout.

    Rumpkin from Avery is amazing. A lot better than Pump[KY]n in my opinion.
