Terrapin Pumpkinfest Returns Early August 2013
(Athens, GA) – Though summer has not yet loosed its torrid talons, Terrapin Beer Co. is ready to tempt autumn to come closer with a hearty “Willkommen!” and the brewery’s beloved fall Seasonal Sessions beer Pumpkinfest returning to shelves.
Pumpkinfest encompasses an entire Thanksgiving spread in one tasty sip. Perfectly balanced pumpkin (real pumpkin!) and spices are added to, without overwhelming, this German-style brew. Expect a pumpkin pie nose followed by a strong malt backbone, low hop bitterness, and authentic fall taste all wrapped in a light-bodied beer.
