I recently had Wasatch Pumpkin Ale. I will say, if you like pumpkin pie, this may be your favorite beer ever. I really enjoy it.

They have the Sam Adams Fat Jack, Wasatch Pumpkin, and Brooklyn Post Road for sure. Also the Woodchuck Pumpkin cider, but I haven't had that.

I find the shipyard and the post road to be a little thin

If you want to blow the lid off of your pumpkin ales, crush up some graham crackers, and put it around the rim of your pint glass, like you would salt on a margarita glass.
I love pumpkin ale season for this reason alone.

I actually think Blue Moon did a decent job on that one.
