Just sitting down now and trying this year’s(2008) Smuttynose Pumpkin Ale....not crazy about the hops/pumpkin spice blend. Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin was delicious and balanced. Berkshire Brewing’s Oktoberfest was...

I just had the Big Boss Pumpkin Ale at Horniblow’s yesterday and they did a nice job with it this year – nicely balanced between real pumpkin flavor and the pie spices.

Sierra Nevada seasonal 12 packs have been running about $13 - $14 - even the Celebration in the late fall. Next one up is the Anniversary Ale which should be sent out to stores this week since SN sold through all their Summerfest...

You certainly tried a lot of great beers! I’ve enjoyed Anchor Christmas and Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale off of your list. For late seasonal stuff I’ve also enjoyed Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin, Brooklyn Black...

For east coast, I’d say Brooklyn Brewery. I’ve had their witbier, weissbier, stout, porter, lager, and abbey ale, and all were great. For west coast, my list is longer (only because I live here and know more of the...

liked the Chelsea a bit more. Smuttynose Imperial Stout: (tap) - another fantastic beer from Smuttynose. I really look forward to trying some of their beers again. Smuttynose Hamami: (tap) sour ale - see above re: Imperial Stout....

. Cambridge Brewing Co. - Golden (a kolsch), Amber, Pale Ale, and Porter should be available in growlers – seasonals expcept for pumpkin are not. Boston beer works – don’t know their growler policy, but their IPA,...

I love it, for sure. There are so many great barrel-aged beers, though I can’t say I’ve experienced what you’re describing. Jolly Pumpkin in Michigan makes numerous sour Belgian styles that are barrel-aged....

Celebration and Bigfoot, Smuttynose Pumpkin, etc. that I know is fresh. All my other beer needs are satisfied by draft beer at reliable beer bars and brewpubs, and my homebrew. I like hoppy beers for the most part and I think I...

consists of is a husband and wife. Also, pumpkin beer season is upon us, not sure where the pumpkins they are using are coming from. Smuttynose is my favorite followed by the Dogfish Pumkin Ale. Post Road Pumpkin is not that bad,...

I tried Smuttynose's latest offering in their “Big Beer” series, a “wheat wine,” (a barleywine-strength American-style wheat ale) last night. It was very good. This brewery’s “Big Beers”...

Shoals Pale Ale, courtesy of Smuttynose Brewing Co. It’s part of a mix-pack, so I have 4 different varieties of Smuttynose!

A few so-far-unmentioned: HopDevil, Troeg’s HopBack, Smuttynose IPA, Haverhill Leatherlips, Dale’s Pale Ale, Opa Opa IPA, New England Brewing Sea Hag, Trinity IPA, Harpoon IPA... That list goes form excellent to meh in...

Ommegang, Smuttynose Old Brown Dog Ale, and Abita TurboDog all go well with Cholent. So long as you’re drinking something fairly full bodied to stand up to the richness of the cholent you’ll be ok.

I really like Dogfishhead and Smuttynose brands but today Passadumkeg brought me a Thunder Hole brown ale that was just outstanding! I can’t wait to try the Cadillac Stout.....
