Four Peaks taps Pumpkin Porter, its best-selling seasonal beer, tonight at midnight at its pubs in Tempe and Scottsdale.
It will hit restaurants, bars, and retail stores next week.
Pumpkin Porter made its debut in 1999, when it was one of just a few pumpkin beers nationwide. Today, more than 1,000 pumpkin beers are brewed.
The recipe has remained unchanged for 19 years. Although brewed with pumpkin puree, the beer isn’t meant to taste like pumpkin, but rather pumpkin pie spices.
Learn more about the origins of Pumpkin Porter in this Q&A with Four Peaks brewmaster Andy Ingram from the MXSW files.
