Prairie Artisan Ales – Pumpkin Kerfuffle
Today Arfred is serving Prairie Ales – Pumpkin Kerfuffle, a 8.2% imperial sour with pumpkin pie spice blend and toasted marshmallow flavor. I’m a sucker for pumpkin pie, however I’m a purist and I don’t like toppings like whipped cream…
Evil Twin – Lemon Meringue, Pink Pineapple, Grape
