Halloween Buzz-Part Three

Ok, so I need to quit drinking the Pumpkin Ales and get back to building props. My third taste test of the autumn season was Buffalo Bill's Pumpkin Ale from Hayward, CA. "The only good thing about the end of summer," I agree with that except for the fact that Halloween comes with the end of summer...but of course you already knew that.


Good beer, not too sweet, not too spicy, one of my favorites of the season and I also like the vintage looking artwork on the bottle. If you see BBPA in the store pick up a six pack and give it a try, good stuff and a great way to celebrate the end of summer.

Halloween Buzz-Part One

Halloween Buzz-Part One
Tis the season when the pumpkin ales hit the store shelves and I get the chance to sample as many different kinds as my wallet allows. My first purchase was O'Fallon Pumpkin Beer made in O’Fallon, Missouri.


After venturing into my favorite store (Valley Produce here in Midland, MI) and surveying the collection of twenty or so autumn brews I chose O’Fallon Pumpkin Beer because I liked the simplicity of the artwork on the bottle and box.

The beer was extremely pleasant with nice flavors of cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. Not too strong, not too sweet. Good stuff. A nice treat on a cool autumn day.
