Beer of the Week

The beer: Pumpkin Ale

The brewery: Blockhouse Brewing Company, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Description (from the bottle): "Everything you love about beer disguised as everything you love about homemade pumpkin pie. Take tomorrow off."

Would I buy it again? It's that time of year. As surely as the leaves change colors, breweries will flood the market with pumpkin beers. This particular pumpkin beer is pretty straightforward in terms of style and it's pretty solid, if maybe a bit too sweet for my taste. This is one of those beers that I wouldn't say no to, but I wouldn't want to drink more than one in a night. It's surprisingly heavy and dense for a pumpkin ale.
