    La Parcela has that extra funky pumpkin taste that works well off the sour notes. But be prepared to split that bad bomber at least three or four ways.

    what other 750ml barrel aged American Wild ales do find for those prices? Some of their Saisons might be a little high, but I find La Roja, Noel, Madrugada, Maracaibo Especial, etc, to be well priced for their style.

    La Parcela No. 1 Pumpkin Ale. I had an aged bottle and I thought it was excellent. It was like a funky saison with some spice and squash notes on the finish. Perfect beer for the fall, and a great twist on pumpkin beers.

    This was my suggestion, it is also one of the more sour varieties that I have had from them.

    La Roja is my favorite, followed by Madrugada and Biere de Mars. To be honest though, I've enjoyed every beer I have had from them.

    I have about half of their normal lineup to try still, but my favorite thus far has been Bambic.
