Shipyard Pumkinhead Ale

I just got home from my annual cross-country jaunt to visit my dear friends the Mullins in Waltham, MA and happy to report I ate and drank like a superstar!

More to come on the eats... but first, the drinks! One of the reasons I chose to visit Boston this year during the fall, is because this time LAST year when I visited, I enjoyed the most fabulous brew, Shipyard Pumpkinhead Ale!

I have been listening to Stacie rave about this beer for several years now, so I was so excited to finally try it last year and I was even more excited to toss back a few of my new fall favorite this year.

Shipyard is an east coast thing, so I have been doing a little research to see if I can find a local pumpkin ale. Turns out Elysian Brewing Company has one! I have not tried this yet but since there is a Brewpub adjacent to Qwest Field, a place I frequent, I think I am going to add this to my list!

Here's to Fall, bottoms up!

I have to say Shipyard Pumpkin Ale, Sam Adams Oktoberfest and Harpoon Winter Warmer are my three fave seasonal beers! I'm glad you got to taste a little bit of Fall! We miss you already (especially Tucker!) XOXO

I have had this beer and it is soo good! I found it at one of our local wine/beer distributor places and was super excited since Stacie had been raving about it! Yummers! Gotta love fall beers!
