With the temperatures dropping and the leaves starting to change color, one thing is certain: pumpkin beer season is officially upon us.

And whether you love or loathe the sight of these spiced, orange-hued brews, it isn't fall until you've had at least one!

Which is why you gotta get your hands on Whiskey Barrel-Aged Imperial Pumpkin Porter from the flavor masterminds at Utah’s Epic Brewing. One taste of these boozy fall flavors and you’ll be trading in those swim trunks for a warm, cozy sweater.

Brewed with real pumpkins, a medley of warm spices, and aged in hand-selected whiskey barrels, every sip of this seasonal sensation is like a pumpkin pie fresh out of the oven — only, one that’s spiked with a massive 9.0% ABV. Bet your grandma couldn’t do that!

Leave it to the fellas at Epic to capture these irresistible seasonal flavors in a smooth-sipping Porter. They have cemented their dominance in Utah with 7 of the Top 10 Beers in the entire state on BeerAdvocate! 

And today’s spiced-sipper makes it easy to taste why. 

Warm aromas of cinnamon, nutmeg, and top-shelf whiskey swirl from the mahogany pour. Take a sip, and rich notes of pumpkin pie, roasted malt, and dark chocolate coat the palate. Earthy oak from the barrel-aging lingers on the finish, making the huge ABV wash down smooth.

So next time your buds show up to the bonfire with a pack of Blue Moon’s Harvest Pumpkin Ale, hand them a top-rated craft equivalent and blow their minds with its spiced smoothness — one sip and they'll bow down to the new Pumpkin King.
