Reality check: Yes, we know it's just September, but these seasonal delights become scarce in October.
Dig in: We've tasted plenty of pumpkin beers through the years, and here are three of our favorites.
Four Noses Pump Action: Two gold medals at prestigious competitions put this imperial pumpkin ale (7.7% ABV) at the top. Where others often are overspiced, this beer displays delicate flavors of nutmeg, allspice, clove and cinnamon.
Upslope Pumpkin Ale: The Boulder brewery adds organic baby bear pumpkins and a custom blend of six spices for this limited edition brew.
Odyssey Beerwerks Fluffy Pumpkin: Get in the season with the Arvada brewery's unique pumpkin beer that includes pumpkin and toasted marshmallow in a dark porter-style brew.
