The pumpkin beer you've loved since 1994
First brewed in 1994 to win a baking contest, Punkin Ale is a full-bodied brown ale with smooth hints of pumpkin and brown sugar thanks to our brewers using real pumpkin meat, brown sugar and spices. As the season cools, this is the perfect beer to warm up with.
Punkin Ale s is our fall Season-Ale for 2025 (previously known as our Art Series) featuring artwork by our 2025 Season Ales artist Drew Millward.
