Guest guest Posted October 17, 2008 Report Posted October 17, 2008 Pumpkin Ale Description:Often released as a fall seasonal, Pumpkin Ales are quite varied. Some brewers opt to add hand-cut pumpkins and drop them in the mash, while others use puree or pumpkin flavoring. These beers also tend to be spiced with pumpkin pie spices, like: ground ginger, nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, and all spice. Pumpkin Ales are typically mild, with little to no bitterness, a malty backbone, with some spice often taking the lead. Many will contain a starchy, slightly thick-ish, mouthfeel too. In our opinion, best versions use real pumpkin, while roasting the pumpkin can also add tremendous depth of character for even better results, though both methods are time-consuming and tend to drive brewmasters insane.Average alcohol by volume (abv) range: 4.0-7.0% [ ? ] View the Top Beers for Pumpkin Ale Style Examples - 1 to 20 (out of 193) - Ordered by # Reviews « first ‹ prev | 1-20 | 21-40 | 41-60 | next › last » Name Brewery ABV% Avg Revs Punkin' Ale Dogfish Head Craft Brewery 7.00 B+ 816 Harvest Moon Pumpkin Ale Coors Brewing Company 5.60 C+ 379 Buffalo Bill's Pumpkin Ale Buffalo Bill's Brewery 4.90 C 375 Pumpkinhead Ale Shipyard Brewing Co. 4.50 C 352 Post Road Pumpkin Ale Brooklyn Brewery 5.00 B 349 Imperial Pumpkin Ale Weyerbacher Brewing Co. 8.00 B+ 337 Smuttynose Pumpkin Ale Smuttynose Brewing Company 6.00 B+ 320 Pumking Southern Tier Brewing Company 9.00 A- 275 Jack's Pumpkin Spice Ale Anheuser-Busch, Inc. 5.50 C+ 219 New Holland Ichabod Ale New Holland Brewing Company 5.50 B- 186 Saranac Pumpkin Ale Matt Brewing Company, The 5.40 B 161 Southampton Pumpkin Ale Southampton Publick House 6.00 B+ 125 O'Fallon Pumpkin Ale O'Fallon Brewery 5.50 B 113 Cottonwood Pumpkin Spiced Ale Carolina Beer Company 4.50 B+ 112 Sea Dog Pumpkin Ale Sea Dog Brewing Company 5.00 C- 58 Schlafly Pumpkin Ale Saint Louis Brewery / Schlafly Tap Room 8.00 A- 54 Night Owl Pumpkin Ale Elysian Brewing Company 6.10 B+ 45 Fisherman's Pumpkin Stout Cape Ann Brewing Company 6.75 B+ 45 Wild Goose Pumpkin Patch Wild Goose Brewery, LLC ?

A financial system always devolves, without heavy government control, into a Mafia capitalism -- and a Mafia political system. A self-regulating market turns human beings and the natural environment into commodities, a situation that ensures the destruction of both society and the natural environment. Karl Polanyi Quote
