Pumpkin Ale - Big Woods Brewery

Cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg combined with pumpkin creates a wonderful fall tradition of pumpkin pies.  The warm, soft, firm filling with a great crunchy crumbly gram cracker crust and just a small whip cream topping will take the hardest person back to warm childhood memories.

I do not like most pumpkin beers.  So when I tried this Pumpkin Ale from Big Woods in Nashville, Indiana I was left breathless with nostalgia from family get togethers at my grandmother's house.  This is by far the best pumpkin ale I have ever tried because it tastes just like a pumpkin pie.  

The last time I went to Big Woods I met a few friends for dinner.  After 15 minutes of trying to talk Brian into trying a sip of the beer he gave in.  Taking the glass up to his face was filled with dismay because he kept saying "pumpkin beer is not for me!"  I will always remember the look of shock as he set the beer back down, leaned back in the chair saying holy shit that was incredible.  Three days later in a text he asked if I knew where he might be able to buy some.  Needless to say I was surprised by the text because of how fervent a fight Brian gave to even taking a sip.  

Once again Big Woods does it again with creating a wonderfully crafted beer!  Bravo!
