Since my IPA trials this Summer resulted in finding many I actually liked, I thought maybe I would give Pumkin brews a second chance. I do like pumpkin pie, cakes, seeds etc... First (and maybe only one) is a total FAIL! I picked up a variety 12pack of Sam Adams with 3 Pumpkin Ales in it. Had one last night. It was not bad going down, but hours later I still had a taste of it in my mouth like I had eaten raw pumpkin. Gross! 2 more in the fridge will probably be there till someone else drinks them.
