Thirteenth Anniversary Ale

Thirteenth Anniversary Ale, from Stone
Season: Anniversary
ABV: 9.5%

Malty, malty, malty.

If you like your beer malty and boozy, you'll like this. Personally, I don't. It may be the first Stone beer that I really don't like.

Night Owl Pumpkin Ale

Night Owl Pumpkin Ale, from Elysian
Season: Fall
ABV: 6.1%

A spicy, but not overwhelmingly pumpkiny beer. I don't like fruity or flavored beers, but I liked this one. I'd drink it again!

A malty, spicy ale that really isn't my thing. If you're into spicy fall ales, you'll probably really like this.

Season: Oktoberfest/Fall
ABV: 5.5%

Another fine brew from Widmer Brothers. An amber ale strong in malts, with a nice bitter, hoppy finish.

Widmer Brothers has yet to produce a beer I don't like (or love)!

A full-bodied, delicious lager.

It's a smooth amber beer rich with malts and a touch of hops. A great way to celebrate fall!
