So lucky you can even get any. I haven't had anything that came close yet, in terms of pumpkin beers.
Off to the Hopleaf tonight. I expect something new and or rare on tap.

I did pretty well. Had the following:
Bell's - The Oracle
The Bruery - Autumn Maple
Founders - Breakfast Stout
The Oracle seemed to me to be very close to Hopslam, but maybe with a bit sharper bite. Overall, I did not feel it stood out from the many IIPAs on the market today. The Bruery beer was made with yams instead of pumpkins. It was an interesting novelty, and worth drinking, but way overdone at 10%, and probably not a repeat for me. Lastly, the FBS was much better than the previous times I had it. Drank way smoother at 8% than the beers I had prior to it. I still think the coffee in this beer is really muted compared to the superior coffee beers out there, and the name of the beer is thus silly, but I enjoyed it tonight.

Pliny was pretty good. Im very sensitive to anything hoppy, so I wasnt too stoked on it. If you really want one that bad, I'll mail you one lol
The Stone Russian Imperial was like drinking motor oil. A bomber at 10.5% does the job right, but I agree, it wasnt very tasty. Alittle too rich and thick for my taste.
Delerium Tremmens is one my favorite beers, havnt had it on tap yet, I want to see how that tastes.
Id say the best one that I had from my order was either the Barney Flats Oatmeal Stout or Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout. Both very delicious and reasonably priced.

Yeah Autumn Maple isn't my favorite Bruery beer. Unfortunately, they don't bottle my two favorite beers they make: Humulus Lager and Pharaoh. Both are freaking outstanding beers. Humulus Lager would fly off the shelf if it was bottled.
If you get a chance to try Loakal Red, get it. It's really good. Quite smooth and delicious

Natursekt Black Metal
Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier.
Tastes just like Walkers smokey bacon crisps, very much recommended.
I am pleased to see that the states have some rather interesting beers, so if and when I visit I wont be thirsty ever. Favourite beer I ever had was Youngs Christmas Pudding ale which seems to have become discontinued as it doesnt seem to be available on the net or in the shops.

Agreed, I love rauchbiers. Had the Sam Adams version tonight myself...seemed well-made but the smoke was muted.

Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbiers is one of the few drainpours I've ever done. It tasted like drinking a liquid ash tray to me. Last time I had it was a few years ago. Maybe I need to revisit and re-evaluate. I don't know.
Had Founders Blushing Monk the other night. It was pretty good. It seems like everybody on BeerAdvocate was pissing themselves when it came out. It tasted like raspberry juice to me. It was almost like Lindeman's Framboise. My girlfriend loved it. I thought it was alright...almost too sweet for my liking. I'm glad I tried it, but I won't be getting it again.

Got one in the planning stages...will be my first stab at one since I've been all-grain brewing (did one with extract, but without mashing the starches from the pumpkin, it's just not the same).

Hop Head Red is quite delicious...but anything from Green Flash is outstanding
what's your setup or where did you get it from? My buddy and I are thinking of eventually going all grain, but I know it's a big step

Started out by following the tips here: http://www.donosborn.com/homebrew/all_grain_how_to.htm
After a few batches, you'll figure out how to tweak things for your own purposes.
