I hate all pumpkin beers! What a waste of good hops and malt. Keep the pumpkin for pie or jack-o-lanterns. Just don't get the flavored beer craze. How about some tuna infused bourbon instead?

Some of these styles of beers have been around hundreds of years longer than the watery beer found in Coors and Bud Light. Last time I was in Munich a common beer at the beer halls for the Spring/Summer time was a beer mixed with lemonade. Traditional seasonal beer since forever. So not really a craze as much as history.

I've also seen the Germans mix it with tomato juice. But by law (the Rheinheitsgebot of 1516), German beers can only be made from malt, hops and water. What they mix with the beer after that is up to personal preference. I love most craft beers but I just don't get mixing in pumpkin gunk while trying to brew a batch.

There is no accounting for taste. Some people love rutgers football. There are a lot of weirdos out there.

I'm with northacuse on the pumpkin beer but my wife loves the pumpkin beer at smokey bones when they rim the mug with caramel and some other sugary stuff. Also much cheaper then her grey goose martinis.

That law is great for promotion of German beer ... you quoted it correctly. Unfortunately there is a critical ingredient missing.

The Punkn by Abita is absolutely outstanding. It's middle of the pack in that list but it should be at or near the top.
