5 Fall Beers That Don’t Contain Pumpkin

Erica Banas // Rock Music Reporter October 14th, 2019

At far as fall food and drinks go, pumpkin flavors tend to dominate the bunch, but not everyone is a fan of this festive squash, particularly when it comes to fall beers.

For those looking for non-pumpkin flavored fall beers, check out these five labels.

 

The Bruery’s Autumn Maple

This beer is brewed with 15 pounds of sweet potatoes in each barrel and contains notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, vanilla and maple syrup.

It's the season for dark ales! As it starts to cool down, some of you are staying warm with your favorite imperial stouts, brown ales and bourbon-barrel aged beers. Here's a #TopPics roundup of the first bottles to get opened this fall. ???? Cheers to @adoodleandabeer @brybrewski @kenntarokitamura @the_beer_fridge and @vince.perri for contributing. ???? Stay warm this season with a beer and tag #TheBruery when you do! The best pics will make our next #TopPics roundup.

Harpoon Brewery’s Flannel Friday

Flannel Friday is a seasonal hoppy Amber Ale from Harpoon Brewery, and while it doesn’t neccesarily contain fall flavors, per se, it does come dressed for the season in its own flannel label.

On Fridays, we wear Flannel - drink, I mean drink. ????(????: @beerstreetjournal) . . . #flannelfriday #lovebeerlovelife #flannel #flannels #craftbeer #lovebeer #lovelife #tgif

SweetWater Brewing Company’s The Pit & The Pendulum

Atlanta’s SweetWater Brewing Company has a variety of The Pit & The Pendulum ale including peaches, apricots or plums. Get it? Because all of those fruits have pits?

For this year's Pit and the Pendulum release, we added 2lbs of Italian plums per gallon to our light sour base that had been aging for 2 years in French oak foeders. Pours a deep orange with rich runk, oak and prune aromas. Find her now at the taproom or near you
