[QUOTE="eurotrash, post: 200546, member: 9237"] Thanks guys! It was definitely an adventure. [LEFT][COLOR=#333333][FONT=lucida grande]To me, a 'pumpkin ale' should taste like a pumpkin pie. Too many of these pumpkin beers are way heavy on the spices, and not focused enough on actual pumpkin taste, some were uneventful entirely. Some just taste like spice alone. Well, I took the liberty these past two seasons to drink every single seasonal beer out, in order to decipher which are the best contenders for your seasonal money. Again, with seasonal beers, they tend to change every season depending on crops, batch notes, etc.. This is a[/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#333333][FONT=lucida grande] culmination of two seasons worth of tasting. There are more this year, literally 40 beers that I singly selected and tested, based on alcohol content, taste, carbonation level in relation to the style, etc. I still have five left to test, but I'm confident that the verdict is in: These are the two best tasting beers money can buy this season. Saranac Pumpkin Ale and Ichabod Crandall Ale. Good luck finding them locally though, because I bought 4 cases of each yesterday! (NOTE: If you do buy some of these, be sure to chill them down to the point of freezing and drink them at about 50-60 degrees F. If you drink them ice cold, you won't taste much spice or pumpkin at all.)
