Is there a better fall treat than pumpkin pie? Nope, which is why there are so many pumpkin beers out there. It's also why ours is based on the dessert, not the gourd. Our twist: Punkel has no pumpkin. It's a dark, malty German lager but with a lighter body enhanced by cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, and ginger. Because who doesn't like a little trick with their treat? It's the perfect session beer for those fleeting cool Texas days spent watching the grackles fly south to their favorite grocery store parking lots.
