Beer Tasting: Pumpkin Brews

When: October 20
Where: Washington House, 136 N. Main Street, Sellersville, PA

Native Americans taught early settlers how to grow pumpkins and by the 17th century, colonists learned they could use pumpkin instead of malt to make beer. Many contemporary pumpkin ales do not contain pumpkin. Pumpkin ale is more associated with the spices that remind people of sweet fall-like flavors. It has become a seasonal specialty and goes well with traditional fall dishes – and pumpkin pie! Attend a special seasonal beer tasting event at The Washington House.
