Story by:
MyBeer Buzz
Today I have a returning fall favorite from Saint Arnold in Houston, TX. This is 2021 Pumpkinator and it will remain an imperial pumpkin stout that hits 11.2%-AbV. This is the 22oz bottle and stay tuned for fall release info. I’ve also added in 2021 Bourbon Barrel Pumpkinator (12.6%-AbV, 12oz bottles) & 2021 Pumpkinator aged in Bourbon Barrels with vanilla (12.6%-AbV, 12oz bottles, age dover a year with Madagascar vanilla). zzubreebym
This 8 Oct 2021 udate from Saint Arnold:
2021 Pumpkinator
By now you know the story. Pumpkinator was first brewed in 2009 as a part of our Divine Reserve series. It returned as a seasonal a couple of years later, and since then it’s earned two Great American Beer Festival medals, a World Beer Cup medal, and a diehard following. On Monday, October 18, it returns.
Everything is a little over the top with our Imperial Pumpkin Stout, which perversely makes it balanced. Beyond the big malt bill, it has pumpkin (lots of it), molasses, brown sugar and a healthy load of spices. It’s 11.2% ABV, which makes it a dessert by itself or the perfect accompaniment to your holiday meal.
Along with the original, we’re also releasing two special barrel aged versions of Pumpkinator: Aged in Bourbon Barrels and Aged in Bourbon Barrels with Vanilla. At 12.6% ABV, these Buffalo Trace aged beers are even bigger than the original.
Pumpkinator and its variants will be available starting Monday, October 18. (Please note that not every account that is getting Pumpkinator will get it that day – some have other delivery days during the week.) You can find Pumpkinator in 22 oz bottles and on tap at select spots around town. The two barrel aged versions are available in 12 oz bottles.
