Sammy's is pretty tasty this year. I didn't like last year's, though the recipe was probably identical.
What I need is a pumpkin ale. Suggestions?

Any Map App could probably show you the closest gay bar.

Southern Tier Pumking is probably the quintessential pumpkin beer. Sweet and spicy like a pumpkin pie (which will be a lot of these since the pumpkin spice is usually more apparent than the pumpkin itself)
If you get Elysian beer, The Great Pumpkin, Dark of the Moon, and Night Owl are all pumpkin beers. TGP being more along Pumking's line, DotM being a pumpkin porter, and Night Owl as a lighter pumpkin ale. Sort of a Fall Amber with pumpkin and spices.
Dogfish Head Punkin is a pumpkin brown ale and should be pretty easy to find
Shipyard Brewing out of Maine makes Smashed Pumpkin Ale which is along the lines of Pumking and The Great Pumpkin.
Whatever you end up finding, a little tip. Don't drink these ice cold. Let them come up to about 50 degrees or so and you'll get a lot more flavor out of them. The cold stuff is for crap you don't want to taste. Cold kills flavor.
Opinions on PUMPKING? And which particular Sammy's do you guys like this time of year?
