I enjoy a good micro-brewed seasonal beer. Now that fall has arrived you can find all kinds of specialty beer on the shelves. There have been some good ones over the years, but this pumpkin beer is one of the best I have had. I first dipped the glass in soda water and then sugared the rim with a mixture of cinnamon and sugar. Delicious!
Somewhere out there in party land there is a recipe that adds a shot of vanilla vodka to the beer. I'm not that adventurous. The warmth of the cinnamon and sweetness of the sugar were enough to hold my attention.
I chose to purchase a New England regional beer from the Shipyard Brewery out of Portland Maine, but I'm sure there are loads of local breweries near you that have a delicious pumpkin beer available. Pumpkin beer is a flavorful way to welcome in fall. Cheers!
