Some details on the quantity of Southern Tier Pumking shipped in 2012 courtesy of Nathan Arnone via NorthJersy.com:
"I don't think anyone could brew on the scale we do using whole pumpkins," says Nathan Arnone, public relations director for Southern Tier Brewing in Lakewood, N.Y. He estimates the brewery shipped about 8,000 barrels of its imperial-strength Pumking during August and September, more than 10 percent of Southern Tier's entire output for 2012. Using drums of puréed pumpkin eliminated a lot of grunt work and enabled the brew crew to pump out beer before this year's crop ripened, satisfying retailers who wanted the product on their shelves before Labor Day.
