Day 300! What better way to celebrate than with a
pumpkin beer, right?
No, not really. I’m revisiting
pumpkin beers and ales for the sake of the blog, but you know? I still don’t really like them. I had planned to keep this up until Halloween…
we’ll see how long it lasts.
I’d say the Smuttynose was just a little better than the New Holland
Ichabod pumpkin, because you could make out the tastes of the pumpkin and the
spices a little beer. But I still can’t
give it a “Good” grade, because it’s not something I’ll order again.
And another thing – Smuttynose needs to invest in a little
marketing. Their labels and beer names
aren’t very creative, and their website ranks very low out of all the beer
sites I’ve visited this year. The
picture below is the actual picture of their pumpkin beer posted on their
website.
Sure, I’d rather they put their money into the beer, but a little
investment could certainly help the brand!
