Just heard that Sam Adams Octoberfest and Sierra Nevada Octoberfest (gets great reviews) are showing up on the shelves.

I need to try more of the Octoberfests this year - the SN is on my list.  It's almost time to bust out the Pumkings from last year from the cellar!

You can have the jack o'lanterns but I luv SA Octoberfest and certainly want to try the SN.

Have you had the Warlock too?  I wasn't as big of a fan, but I will get 1 or 2 this year and try them again.  I just can't get enough of Pumking!

Have not had Warlock.  Not much of a flavored beer fan.

I have to stop at the Grocery/Beer Store on the way home will check what they have now.

Understandable - there are way more bad ones than good ones it makes it tough to sift through it all.

For sure there are a butt load of them and seems to me most are not so good.  And they are expensive to try and not like.

Exactly-I usually like most of the unique ones Southern Tier puts out, but they do have a couple of funky ones.

My dad and I are brewing a Vanilla Bean Porter this weekend and we are adding in some orange peel and cacao nibs.  Orange is going in during the boil, as I just want a slight aftertaste, but the cacao is going in for the second fermentation along with the vanilla beans.

That is quite a concoction!   I got a little brewing set up for my birthday and plan to get my first batch started when it cools off a little.

Shiner has a Prickly Pear Cactus beer that is not bad but real light.

I always tried to find that Shiner but I never saw it locally - we seemed to get all of the other seasonal releases though.  I am getting into brewing more and more - my dad is about to switch to kegging, so that will be amazing once that happens.

Totally new to me but I have a good friend in Denver who has been brewing for over 20 years and all he does is kegs now.

Think I will go home, don't cut a burrito in that meeting!

Here's a partial try list for you (in addition to the two you mentioned):
Brooklyn Oktoberfest
New Glarus Staghorn Oktoberfest
Flying Dog Dogtoberfest
Left Hand Oktoberfest
Victory Festbier
Half Acre Lager Town
Bruery Autumn Maple
Breckenridge Brewery Autumn Ale
Southern Tier Harvest (more of an English Bitter)
DuClaw Mad Bishop

That's not even venturing into the pumpkin offerings.

I prefer Warlock over Pumking...not quite as sweet.

Creme Brulee can rot your teeth out....Choklat, Choklat Oranj, Mokah are interesting.  Really like 2XMAS but not Old Man Winter.
