Southern Tier Brewing Company Pumking 4/12oz.

Southern Tier Pumking Imperial Ale is a highly popular seasonal beer known for its decadent and dessert-like flavor profile that closely mimics a slice of pumpkin pie. Upon pouring, it reveals a deep copper color with a creamy head. The aroma is robust and complex, dominated by sweet notes of pumpkin puree, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. These pie-like spices carry through into the taste, balanced by a backbone of sweet caramel and bready malts that create a full and rich mouthfeel. The 8.6% ABV is present but well-integrated, providing a noticeable warmth that complements the beer’s autumn-inspired profile without tasting overly boozy. Overall, it is often described as “liquid pumpkin pie in a glass,” cherished by fans for its potent and rich flavor.
