What are you guys drinking this season? I'm a huge fan of Autumn beers. Right now I'm drinking Blue Moon Pumpkin and some home made cider which actually came out good. I finished a case of Yuengling Oktoberfest with my dad, and Spaten Oktoberfest is probably next.
I also tried Angry Orchard cider which had too much cinnamon, and Saranac has a nice Pumpkin beer that comes in a nice $4 bottle. I hate buying six packs unless I've tried it before.

I tend to skip the fall beers and go straight for the winter heavies. Aside for the true German Oktoberfest beers (Hacker Pschorr et all) I tend not to go much for the fall flavors.

Same here, tallen. Aside from 1-2 pumpkin beers at the beginning of fall, I go straight for the stouts and porters. The oak aged Yeti's are amazing, but hurt the wallet a little too much to be a regular thing.

Followed Tallen and BB with this one. Had a few obligatory Sam's Octobers at poorly-stocked bars recently, but other than that have been having a fair assortment of porters and stouts.

Pumpkin is fit for Lattes, doughnuts, and pies.

12 bottles of the Saranac Pumpkin is only like 16 dollars at my grocery store, unless we're talking about different beers? I tried this the other day, I liked it a lot. Magic Hat Seance

I'll try most pumpkin beers I come across. They're not my favorite beer, but they have their place.
Oktoberfest beers are my all time favorite style though.

I like to class up the fall season by drinking keystone light.

My favorite fall beers are all German Maerzens, Shwaben Brau is my favorite, followed by Paulaner and Stuttgarter Hofbrau. The only exception is Dogfish Head 60 minute IPA, which I consider a fall beer.

Bought a six pack of Anchor porter. That fit the bill for the weather we're starting to get.

Made some chili with on of my favorite winter beers:

Cubed sirloin, tomato, onion, shallot, garlic, chili powder (made it with arbol, new mexico, and pasilla chiles), jalapeņos, red chiles, black beans cooked down to thicken it, 2 bottles of Sleigh'r, and cocoa powder

I just finished some Mission Shipwrecked Double IPA, pretty good stuff. As far as seasonals, I just had some Flying Dog The Fear which was good. Can't go wrong with Southern Tier Pumking though!

I like the Sam Adams Octoberfest. I would normally get some local craft beer, but I've been tight on money recently and they sell Octoberfest for a decent price on base so...yea.

Well having become a winter ski bum , and a summer beach bum I tend to drink PBR or highlife always.
Shipyard Punpkinhead is my go to fall beer though if I can afford it. It's really the only beer I'll spend the extra for.

Was going to try some Two Hearted Ale. It said it was unfiltered. Pulled a bottle out and looked at the bottom. Wouldn't you know it, some kind of detritus floating around and swirling. Pass...

That's just some leftover yeast. It's perfectly fine.

Yep. Unfiltered beers are superior since they get to sit on their lees which helps them age in the bottle unlike filtered stuff. Most true Belgians aren't filtered.

If you're really worried about it, just be a bit careful when grabbing the bottle and when you pour it just leave a small amount in the bottle. This is what you generally do with bottled homebrew anyway because there's usually quite a bit on the bottom of bottles.

It loses pretty much all of its awesomeness in the green bottle. Try to find some in a mini keg. They are completely different beers.
