Finally a beer for fans of pumpkin ales and sour brews, Boulevard Brewing's Funky Pumpkin is a style unto itself, a wholly original concoction that surprised me as to how much i enjoyed it. On paper, a sour pumpkin ale probably sounds like a terrible idea, but in practice, it totally works. Funky Pumpkin pours a hazy gold with a light and dissipating white head and smells of bread and light spices with a tiny hint of pumpkin. The 5.8% ABV beer is crisp and medium-bodied, sour, but not overly so with very subtle flavors of pumpkin, nutmeg, cinnamon, and yeast, all in a tart little package. Definitely one of the more interesting beers i've tried in a while, but tasty all the same. Fans of pumpkin beers or sours should give it a whirl.
