Pumpkin Beers and Other Fall Ales |
With a pleasant, sweet flavor reminiscent of pumpkin pie, it’s no wonder why pumpkin beer is one of the most popular fall beverages out there. If you’ve never tried pumpkin beer, autumn is the time to do it, and if you have, there may be a brew you haven’t had yet that’ll make this season that much better. Additionally, you’ll find several other beers that make for a great fall drink. Here, Joe Canal’s, a wine, spirits, and beer store in Lawrenceville, New Jersey, discusses several pumpkin beers that make for the perfect drink this fall, as well as other seasonal favorites. Pumpkin BeerWhen it comes to fall alcoholic drinks, pumpkin beer sits at the top. Despite the name, these beers typically feature a combination of pumpkin flavor and spices like nutmeg, cinnamon, and ginger to deliver that signature fall taste. Beer drinkers can also find yam beers that mix the taste of sweet potatoes with pumpkin for a Thanksgiving treat. MarzenHalloween and Thanksgiving are the main holidays people associate with fall, but don’t forget Oktoberfest! Marzen is the official beer of Oktoberfest, and this lager features rich maltiness and a smooth, clean finish. Crisp hops deliver a lingering bitterness, and the taste features notes of toasted bread (think soft pretzels) and caramel. Brown, Red, and Amber AlesBrown, red, and amber — three colors that encapsulate the beauty of fall. Brown ales are light-bodied and feature flavors of roasted malt, caramel, and chocolate. Their hop aroma is often faint, but the hop bitterness is more pronounced for a fresh taste. Red ales are medium-bodied and maintain a great balance of sweet (malt) and bitter (hops). American red ales typically use American hops for a unique aroma comprising pine and citrus. Amber ales have fuller bodies and a strong hop bitterness and aromas. The caramel flavors feature less prominently, but still give amber ales a hint of sweetness. Porters and StoutsMade with malted barley, porters have a dark brown hue reminiscent of autumn. Top flavors include chocolate and caramel, perfect for a cool fall day. Stouts are an evolution of porters and also feature a dark color. Full-bodied, stouts have a rich, coffee flavor that warms you as the weather gets colder. Dark LagersLagers are a versatile drink, with many varieties to try at different points throughout the year. One of the best options for the fall is Schwarzbier, a cold-fermented dark lager with a light body and notable hop bitterness. Like porters and stouts, this dark larger has a roasted flavor, but a light body means they perfectly match the change in weather during the autumn months.
