Forgot to post this last Sunday... but me and some buddies did one of our monthly tastings. This month was Pumpkin Ales. This is certainly not my favorite style, but I was surprised by a few...
Here were the final rankings (all beers were tasted blind):
1) Schlafly Pumpkin Ale
2) Stevens Point Whole Hog Pumpkin Ale (my #1)
3) Upslope Pumpkin Ale
4) DFH Punkin
5) Southern Tier Pumpking (I hate this beer... actually poured some of it out)
6) Smuttynose Pumpkin Ale (This is the worst pumpkin beer I've ever had... what a freaking disaster)
I know this information doesn't do anyone much good, since Pumpkin ales are long gone. But... there ya go.
