BOONVILLE, CA—For the first time, Anderson Valley Brewing Company announced today the release of Fall Hornin’ (a pumpkin spiced ale) as part of its rotating lineup of seasonal beers.  Shipments of both twelve-ounce cans and bottles began making their way to selected wholesalers across the nation in late July.  In addition, draft will be available on a limited basis in those select markets.

Brewmaster Fal Allen says that Fall Hornin’ is “pleasantly creamy with a silky body, boasting a brilliantly dark copper hue and aromas of caramelized malt, baking bread, and seasonal spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg and pumpkin.  It has a nice, sweet caramel flavor to balance the tang of the spices with a hint of hops, all wrapped in a smooth, round finish.”

This year’s limited production run of just over 1,000 barrels of Fall Hornin’ was oversubscribed quickly and all available cases have been allocated.  Fall Hornin’ will be available in the trade from early-August through mid-September, making it the perfect complementary offering to the brewery’s seasonal portfolio which includes the highly popular Summer and Winter Solstice.

Brooklyn Brewery Post Road Pumpkin Ale https://allaboutbeer.net/learn-beer/reviews/staff-reviews/2011/10/brooklyn-brewery-post-road-pumpkin-ale/ https://allaboutbeer.net/learn-beer/reviews/staff-reviews/2011/10/brooklyn-brewery-post-road-pumpkin-ale/#comments Mon, 24 Oct 2011 14:42:17 +0000 Julie Johnson https://allaboutbeer.net/?p=22999 Post Road Pumpkin Ale is very attractive in the glass. It’s yellow-gold in color with an off-white head. The aroma is gently spicy, but not aggressive—surprisingly buttoned-up for a Brooklyn beer. In the mouth, lots of carbonation, with light spicing, but nothing scary here. Well made: balanced, drinkable, a light hand with the spices. A restrained example.

Big Boss Brewing Co. Harvest Time Pumpkin Ale https://allaboutbeer.net/learn-beer/reviews/staff-reviews/2011/10/big-boss-brewing-co-harvest-time-pumpkin-ale/ https://allaboutbeer.net/learn-beer/reviews/staff-reviews/2011/10/big-boss-brewing-co-harvest-time-pumpkin-ale/#comments Mon, 10 Oct 2011 19:14:54 +0000 Julie Johnson https://allaboutbeer.net/?p=22647 This beer pours copper in the glass, with a light ecru head. Aromas of banana taffy and tropical fruits. Banana and passion fruit in the flavor, plus Vanilla Wafer cookies and light spicy pie filling. It’s Bananas Foster, with caramel notes, exotic fruit and brown sugar sweetness. The pumpkin adds a noticeable tannic quality that makes your molars squeak, and there’s hop bitterness in the finish.
