We're getting closer to September, which means that pumpkin ales are now flowing (along with Oktoberfests), and i'm a happy beer drinker. A lot of the usual gang of misfits are on the shelves, but a new one for my taste perusal just dropped from Austin's
4th Tap, a collaboration ale of sorts with local haunted house provocateurs House of Torment. The 5% ABV House of Torment Pumpkin Ale pours a brownish amber and smells of pumpkin, yams, and allspice. The flavor is a shade more subdued than a lot of other pumpkin beers out there, a little heavier on the roasted pumpkin and lighter on the spices. The end product is a sweet, mildly spicy, and easy drinking Autumn brew.
Visit the
brewer.
