A Note on This Beer
Southern Tier’s Pumking is the beating heart of Pumpkin Beer season. Its creamy vanilla, pie-in-a-glass center is brought to Imperial levels of 8.6% ABV and worshipped by palates from coast to coast. Few beers amass its reputation. Few beers are anticipated to its degree. In short, if you see it, you drink it. (Even if it belongs to someone else.)
The taste begins with notes of spiced shortbread and caramel drizzled pumpkin mousse. Bright Tahitian vanilla brings one final burst of sweetness before a welcoming bitterness creates a crisp, dry finish. Boozy heat warms you from the inside out. Cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg aromas intoxicate as you drink; you can even smell flaky fresh baked pie crust rising from the brim.
Pumking’s layered autumnal-treat flavors have earned the beer outstanding community ratings— what would you expect from the undisputed Dessert Beer Masters behind Creme Brulee, Choklat Oranj, and Mokah?
It’s one of the few beers that send Tavour team members into a frenzy. When word spreads that Pumking is in the tasting fridge, things get real. Thirty glasses and one 22 oz. bottle - you do the math.
