You probably got a bad batch of the Breckenridge, although it's not the best Porter out there - if you want to try some porters, Grant's Perfect Porter is my favorite, but almost all will be solid. Flying Dog's Imperial Porter is sound as hell, but has double-digit alcohol content, so it's not for everyone.

Pumpkin ales really won't have a strong 'pumpkin' taste unless it's something niche like Buffalo Bill's Pumpkin Ale, which has actual pumpkin puree in the brew. Instead, it'll carry a sort of "Halloween in a glass" taste. If you're looking for beer with a more explicit flavor, try Young's Double Chocolate Stout, Pyramid Apricot Ale, or Rogue Chipotle (warning: the last one is WEIRD).

I LOVE Rogue Chipotle - but yes, it's definitely weird. I'd also add that Rogue's Chocolate Stout as a beer with an explicit flavor.
