662996 Wed Oct 28 10:46:25 -0700 2009 19 12 Boston Area 0 5137556 Any recommendations on where to purchase this? I've hit up Charles Street Liquor, Top Shelf and Beacon Hill Wine & Spirits to no avail. Any suggestions? Wed Oct 28 10:46:25 -0700 2009 429926 CreativeFoodie42 1 5137571 Come up to Nashua. We have tons of it here in the supermarket. We might be reaching a point in the year when smaller stores are selling out. Wed Oct 28 10:49:09 -0700 2009 5137556 243373 ecwashere7 1 5137699 I have purchased it at Kappy's in Medford (Wellington) and Sav-Mor Liquors by the Twin City Plaza in Somerville. Wed Oct 28 11:28:10 -0700 2009 5137556 108377 TomH 1 5137803 The Wine and Cheese Cask in Somerville has it. And you can pop up the road and enjoy it on tap at The Thirsty Scholar too! At least, they had it last year, and are a Shipyard-affialiated pub in some way so I expect they'll have it now. Wed Oct 28 11:59:11 -0700 2009 5137556 90719 chickendhansak 2 5140155 Are they still? The Shipyard sign out front has been gone for at least a year or so. Thu Oct 29 08:59:27 -0700 2009 5137803 223386 rknrll 3 5142621 Never understood that sign or if there was some deal with Shipyard or not. Fri Oct 30 07:38:58 -0700 2009 5140155 12014 LStaff 3 5142668 I don't remember if the sign is still there, but I did drink said beer on tap there a year ago. Fri Oct 30 07:55:14 -0700 2009 5140155 90719 chickendhansak 1 5138314 Anchovies on Columbus serves it ( I know you wanted to buy it at a store) but they serve it in a glass lined with cinamon sugar). Wed Oct 28 14:26:26 -0700 2009 5137556 158016 cassoulady 1 5138486 I've seen it pretty much everywhere ( Kappy's, Marty's, Wild Duck) to name a few. I think its terrible IMO. Actually probably the worst pumpkin beer I've had thus far this season. Try Dogfish Punkin, Post Road Pumpkin, Cisco's pumpkin......If you like it more pumkin pie-like try southern tier pumking....or better yet stop by Cambridge Brewing Company on Saturday for their Pumpkin fest....about 16 varieties on tap! Wed Oct 28 15:30:29 -0700 2009 5137556 16672 phatchris 2 5139660 I do actually really enjoy Shipyard Pumpkin but also like Dogfish. I'm going to have to look into this CBC event! Thu Oct 29 06:04:19 -0700 2009 5138486 429926 CreativeFoodie42 2 5139809 Agreed. The pumpkin flavor isn't bad (although definitely artificial and added in after brewing) but the beer itself is weak. Way to light, no hops, etc. They definitely should have went with a darker beer. I've been wanting to try the Southern Tier, any idea what liquor stores have it? Thu Oct 29 07:06:11 -0700 2009 5138486 323961 tysonmcneely 3 5140164 Again, the Southern Tier's been available in Wine and Cheese Cask in Somerville ("Food Four Corners") recently. They were out of it the other day though as it was one of their weekly cut-price specials. I can't say I like how this new CH feature is incorrectly inferring that I am talking about a restaurant in New Bedford, BTW, and not giving me the means to avoid the inference, unless I change my wording above. Thu Oct 29 09:02:56 -0700 2009 5139809 90719 chickendhansak 1 5139635 It was available at Atlas in Quincy last weekend. Thu Oct 29 05:43:44 -0700 2009 5137556 52166 jjbourgeois 2 5139901 this is slightly off-topic, but does anyone know which pumpkin beer tastes the most like an actual pumpkin pie? I had it once about 2 or 3 years ago and have been trying to re-find it ever since. It's not shipyard or longtrail. Thu Oct 29 07:36:52 -0700 2009 5139635 238870 julieapfel 3 5140183 Southern Tiers is the most like pumkin pie, very sweet and nutmegy. They have it at the duck on Salem St as well as Marty's in Newton. Thu Oct 29 09:08:40 -0700 2009 5139901 16672 phatchris 4 5140260 Where is the duck on salem street? Is that the Golden Goose? Thu Oct 29 09:30:20 -0700 2009 5140183 39282 Care13 5 5141113 Nope, the Wild Duck. It used to be a bodega style shop with lousy wine and beer. But now its one of the best stores in the city for craft beer and hard to find/ small batch wine and liquors.It's right next to Terramia. They also own Bottles on Commercial st which is pretty much the same store. Thu Oct 29 14:03:55 -0700 2009 5140260 16672 phatchris 6 5146668 I'm a fan of Wild Duck/ Bottles. Wild Duck is across from Mercato de Mare and Bottles is practicalyy across the street from Battery Wharf. Kevin and Kelly, who were formerly at Wine Bottega are involved. Got a flyer this AM from Golden Goose. They list Shipyard Pumpkin Head Ale for $13.99/12 pack. Don't know if it's any good or if that's a good price. Sun Nov 01 08:12:38 -0800 2009 5141113 10111 9lives 3 5142887 I would guess Anchor X-mas Ale which changes every year, but is pie-like in flavors. A great one I just had is The Bruery's "Autumn Maple"--made with yams! Fri Oct 30 09:03:03 -0700 2009 5139901 14743 Trumpetguy 1 5142838 I am friendly with the owners of Top Shelf and they have agreed to order some Pumpkin Ale for me. I'll keep everyone posted when it comes in. Thanks for all of the responses! Fri Oct 30 08:45:29 -0700 2009 5137556 429926 CreativeFoodie42
