Fall is a great time for beer lovers, with all the special beers that are released at this time of year. You have your Oktoberfest Beers, Harvest Beers, and the ever exciting Pumpkin Beers.

Making beer with pumpkin is a practice that goes back to early American colonial times. And while the thought of pumpkin beers may not appeal to you, and frankly some current pumpkin beers are not that good, there are many that are absolutely wonderful like Southern Tier Pumking Ale. You should give it a try.
