Beer appreciation thread

I'm bumping this in honor of the greatest event on earth, the Great American Beer Festival. My sympathy goes out to all who cannot attend this glorious and amazing weekend of beer and, well, more beer.

Also, Dogfish Head Punkin' Ale is the shit.

We have a Dogfish Head Alehouse here in the metropolitan area that I've been trying to get Mr. LH to go to, but it's kind of out in the suburbs. I'm starting to come around on the pumpkin ales. I had the Blue Moon Pumpkin Ale over the weekend and really liked it.

I went to happy hour at the Dogfish Head out in the suburbs last night (I went to the original in Rehoboth, DE over the summer which was cool) and finally tried the Punkin' Ale. I have to say I wasn't terribly impressed. I prefer my autumn ales to be spicier and my favorite of the moment is Saranac's Pumpkin Ale.



Although the season is still young and rather than enjoying some of the seasonals I've just been drinking a bunch of Miller Lite whilst watching football. Time to step up my beer game!

I'm surprised the Dogfish Head wasn't that good - everything they make seems to taste great. I should try the Saranac, though, as I'm a fan of their other varieties. I got really into it in college, because it was a fairly inexpensive "good" beer, but I haven't had as much of it since then.

I've heard that Post Road Pumpkin Ale is very good as well. They sell it at one of the local package stores, so I'll probably pick up a six of it sometime soon. I'll post my impressions after trying it.
