We brought you news of this beer back in March…and now the official word from Redhook:
Redhook Brewery, the Northwest’s original craft brew, announced today that its new Out of Your Gourd Pumpkin Porter will hit shelves August 5th and will be available through September 30th. Released in New England markets only last year, the Pumpkin Porter will be available nationally this year. Named “one of the most drinkable pumpkin beers we’ve ever had” by Modern Brewery Age, fans are encouraged to stock up early for this limited edition beer.
Out of Your Gourd Pumpkin Porter is dark chestnut brown in color and is made with pureed pumpkin. Cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger are added to the whirlpool and maple syrup is added during fermentation. Lightly hopped with Northern Brewer hops, Pumpkin Porter is a full-bodied, rich and roasty porter perfect for all things fall – eating turkey, watching football or drinking with your buddies around a bonfire.
“We had a lot of fun with this brew,” said Alex Kopf, Redhook senior brewer.
“We wanted to make a great porter and added traditional fall flavors – pumpkin, chocolate, maple syrup, cinnamon and nutmeg – to put a little Redhook twist on the style.”
Out of Your Gourd Pumpkin Porter will be available in 6 and 12packs of 12 oz bottles and in individual 22 oz bottles. Draught beer will be poured with a cleaver-shaped tap handle as a nod to pumpkin carving. ABV 5.8%; IBU 20.
