Umm then have their Pumpkin Ale retard. If you want pumpkin get pumpkin. Don't compare something to pumpkin when it's not when that's what you want.

real beer > blue moon swill

Blue Moon and Sam Adams aren't particularly spectacular breweries. They're on the low end of the micro spectrum. Sierra Nevada is a better large scale micro.

Yeah, the first thought that came into my mind was the game. Fun game :thumbsup:

Sam's Octoberfest is nothing to write home about, IMO. I'm not a beer snob, I love many of Sam's other brews (Sam's summer is one of my favorite beers), but Octoberfest is right down there with the Winter Ale

 

[KMFJD]

Sam Adams, lol

 

[Fingolfin269]

For those dogging Sam Adams... I'm with ya. But any beer snob knows that their Octoberfest brew is actually recognized to be pretty dang good.

Sam Adams Octoberfest - the only good thing about fall

 

[ShockwaveVT]

Flying Dog Brewery's Dogtoberfest is the best marzen I've had this fall. Sam Adams Octoberfest is decent this year though, I like it a bit more than last years version. Had a good 6pack of Spaten Octoberfest as well.

Preferring pumpkin ale to marzen is all well and good, but its not really a apples to apples comparison. *shrug*

ATOTers critiquing beer is like a blind man critiquing penmanship.

And yet I enjoy them! How can this be if they're so low end! I must have terrible, terrible taste. I should stop drinking beer because I enjoy this swill.

Not a big fan of Octoberfest beers. Got the last 2 12 packs of the delicious Summer Ale last friday from the distributor.

I was really hoping this is what this thread was about

 

[MrMatt]

Holy Crap....the people who recommended Punkin Ale weren't kidding. REEEEDIIIICKYOULUSLEEE good. I wish they served it in a small pumpkin or gourd of some sort

If you're talking about Blue Moon... then I got nothing to say.

If you're talking about Boston Beer Company, well... I like most of their products. And many are recognized, even by snobs, as simply good beer that is readily available all over the country.
The problem that often comes with "really, really good beer" is availability, production numbers, and shipping issues to certain states. Sometimes its hard to find everyone's favorite beer. Sam Adams at least is a brand that is easy to hunt down, though the difficulty comes down to finding one specific brew or another.

Also - Harvest Moon, the game, always rocked! Feel like playing it again.

Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon.

Beer arguments on ATOT are old

I don't know why they're arguments in the first place. People are fighting and insulting things that other people enjoy. How can you tell someone "If you like that, you're stupid!"? It's amazing to me that anyone can get angry if someone doesn't have the same tastes as someone else. I don't get it.

Same goes for steak, chili, and as I learned recently...bottled water threads.

As much as I like pumpkin flavored items this time of year, I just can't like beer with that flavor.
