Over Thanksgiving weekend I traveled to my hometown of St. Louis and had the opportunity to sample a number of local beers during my visit. So I decided to record another beer review on uStream, about one of my favorite local brewers O’Fallon who brew a tasty pumpkin ale I was drinking during the recording. In the video I also go on to discuss the beer culture around St. Louis, what makes for a good pumpkin beer, and more generally about pairing beer during Thanksgiving.

My favorite pumpkin ale is the one pictured here, Schlafly’s Pumpkin Ale, which has a balanced amont of cinnamon and nutmug, and a malty charecter to its taste.

The great pumpkin • Beer guy Evan Benn rates this year’s crop of pumpkin beers, on a scale of one to four jack-o’-lanterns. The local contenders: Schlafly Pumpkin Ale (seen above), Kirkwood Station Pumpkin Ale, Ferguson Pumpkin Ale and O’Fallon Pumpkin Beer.
Bonus: Evan’s picks o’ the week include Perennial Artisan Ales’ Hommel Bier. It just so happens that my next meetup will be Oct. 6 at Perennial Artisan Ales — stop by and see if he’s right about Hommel.
