Avery Brewing’s rum barrel aged pumpkin beer, Rumpkin, is slated to return on September 28th. It looks like that isn’t the only barrel aged pumpkin beer from Avery this year.
Avery’s Barrel Aged Series is damn near legendary, featuring sours alongside bourbon imperial stouts. Avery PumKYn looks to join that line up, a Kentucky bourbon barrel aged porter with a smattering of fall spices.
What’s in a name? Sometimes the simplest can be the most descriptive, and in this case, derisive and divisive! After much internal debate (ad nauseum! Bourb[KY]n, anyone?), we decided a single letter change was the best way to embody the bourbon barrel-aging that adds layers of complexity to an already exquisitely spiced pumpkin porter.
Avery PumKYn will be available in 12oz bottles.
Style: Porter (w/ Nutmeg, Cinnamon, Allspice, Clove, Pumpkin. Barrel Aged. Bourbon.)
Availability: 12oz Bottles
Arrival: TBA
16.25% ABV
