Homecoming

HARVEST PUMPKIN ALE | 6.0% ABV

AVAILABILITY:

SEASONAL (OCTOBER RELEASE - POST HARVEST)

DESCRIPTION:

Each batch contains over 200-lbs of locally harvested sugar pumpkins, and lightly spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg.

THE STORY:

“The only constant is change.” - Heraclitus

As the leaves change color and the air becomes crisp, we are once again made aware of the impermanence of life. The harvest is done and the fruits of our labor realized. We retreat to the comfort of home and are reminded to savor what we have, while we still have it.

Homecoming is a true seasonal beer brewed with over 200-pounds of sugar pumpkins from Sunnycrest Farm in Londonderry, N.H. The pumpkins are roasted, in our Fall tradition, with friends at New England’s Tap House Grille in Hooksett, N.H. Combined with a touch of cinnamon and nutmeg, the result is the perfect beverage for the changing of the season. We hope this beer makes you feel at home and lets you enjoy this moment before it’s gone.

HISTORY:

Many in New England sent grains to the front lines during the American Revolution, forcing them to use other fermentables to make beer. Pumpkins quickly became the prime choice, and thus began a unique tradition rooted to this region of the country.
