    I have not. I will keep an eye out though. I'd run across the street and look now, but they stop selling alcohol at 1am here. it's 2:06. I like ale better than lager, because of the ease of consumption. I think this one that i am drinking is a lager. It's kinda dark, but light for a lager.

    There are some good ones out there, but to me nothing comes close to Southern Tier's Imperial Pumking -- by far my all-time favorite seasonal beer. I would say it might even be my all-time favorite beer, period.

    just like apple cider.or wheat or corn but pumpkin. If i'm not mistaken, pumpkins are the same as squash and zucchini and gords.. I wonder if there is zucchini beer... googling now.

    ok so aparently nobody does it, but the second poster would totally try squash beer.

    Yeah, and Hello Kitty is now selling fruit flavored beer in colorful cans.

    Why does nobody make any real beer anymore. It's worse than Starbucks.

    what is real beer? I'm limited to what I can find in stores around here. I've drank everything from sapporo to chimay to 80 other kinds of beer while I was filling out a microbrew checklist at Tank's bar and gril. they have reportedly the best microbrew selection in the area. If you complete the checklist you get a teeshirt or something.

    Yeah, what is "real beer"? There are more varieties of beer on the market than ever before. Don't tell me you consider Budweiser and Coors "real beer." Beer doesn't have to be limited to only one style.

    Actually bud is no more real beer than pumpkin beer. Some people (although i think they are equally ignorant) only concider beer made by germany purity laws to be real beer. But that law was only made because of harvest shortages not because its the only way to make real beer. Besides that fact, yeast isnt even one of the items on the list of allowed ingredients.

    The basic ingredients of beer are water, malt, hops, and yeast.

    And there are many styles and flavors without having to put friggin pumpkin in the stuff.

    But whatever floats your boat. I just don't like flavoring everything.

    End of rant.

    flavorless beer

    that's like saying that flour salt sugar water and yeast make bread.

    Yeah, but it's only the beginning!

    There are plenty of outstanding beers made with just hops, malt, water and yeast in different amounts and varieties. Whether a beer is flavorless or not mostly depends on the amount of the aforementioned used in the brew. Most of the flavorless beer out there is flavorless because of the amount of flavorless adjuncts (corn, rice, etc.) used in place of hops and malt. There are intensely flavorful beers out there that are made with only traditional ingredients. It depends on the style of the beer.

    Tried one of those last weekend. It was really good and had more of a pumpkin pie flavor I thought.
