Love them or hate them, Pumpkin Beers define the upcoming fall season. And few breweries in America have committed to them like Seattle’s Elysian Brewing.

Elysian is the largest producer of pumpkin beer in the US and continues to push the boundaries of the  gordian style fearlessly. With more than 100 pumpkin beers crafted since 1997’

They are infamous for having sponsored the nation’s largest and longest running all-pumpkin beer celebration the “Great Pumpkin Beer Festival” and this year they are releasing three different takes the grand gordian style, in cans for the first time as part of Elysian’s  highly anticipated Pumpkin Variety Pack.

And given how different they are from one another, chances are even the most adamant pumpkin beer haters might find something they can enjoy.

Elysian Night Owl Pumpkin Ale

This was Elysian’s first foray into pumpkin-fueled ales and it remains one of the brewery’s best-selling seasonal releases today.

Brewed with almost 7 lbs. of pumpkin per barrel, and a menu of roasted and raw pumpkin seeds, that are spiced during the conditioning process with nutmeg, clove, cinnamon ginger and allspice, Elysian Night Owl is a 6.7% ABV ale that’s immensely flavorful but never too sweet.

Elysian Punkuccino Coffee Pumpkin Ale

Elysian’s Punkuccino melds two of Seattle’s most beloved brews, (serious coffee and ale), with the season’s best locally sourced pumpkins, to craft something that’s wildly ambitious.

A beer that’s both eye-opening and good for shutting things down, Punkuccino is a 6% ABV Coffee Pumpkin Ale that serves as interesting alternative for those not so fond of traditional pumpkin ales.

Elysian Great Pumpkin Imperial Pumpkin Ale

According to the brewery, Elysian Great Pumpkin was the world’s first Imperial Pumpkin Ale, and we expect that they’re probably right on that call.

Aggressively unfiltered and stoked to the max on pumpkin and roasted pumpkin seeds, Elysian’s Great Pumpkin is a massive 8.4% exercise in “doubling down” that created an original style that’s now widely duplicated.
