Halloween Beer (Part 2 - Pumpkins)

Wychwood's Pumpking Ale is a nice tasting ale which has been regularly available most years although I don't recall seeing it in 2009, also it has changed from clear to brown bottles and increased its alcoholic content by 0.5%. In 2009 I saw the Badger brewery's Pumpkin Ale which was nothing special to taste and it's label visually left a lot to be desired too. However, in America back in 2004 I was surprised to taste Halloween themed beers both draft and bottled that were flavoured with such spices as vanilla or cinnamon and Stone Cat Pumpkin was one such beer that sadly we don't get over this side of the pond.
