If you are interested in pumpkin ales, click here to read a previous post on this year's picks. Do you agree with their selection? What are you drinking this season?

What? No Oktoberfest beers or pumpkin ales? You have to be kidding. Sam Adams makes an Oktoberfest beer in the German Style that is just outstandingly good.  It's one of the few beers I'll buy in multiple case batches just to have on hand until the holidays pass. Harpoon Pumpkin ale is a great fall brew too.

I am disappointed that no WI microbrews made the list! We have some kick ass selections. This is what I'll be drinking this fall. http://www.jsonline.com/features/food/128327098.html
