Cape Ann Brewing Company Fisherman's Pumpkin Stout 7.0% ABV

Discovered on offer at the Great Brewers Grand Prix of Gloucester, the annual North Shore cyclocross tradition, Cape Ann's foray into autumn medicine is a delight.  Subtly flavored, peculiarly headless, and lacking the punch and sweetness its ABV may insinuate, pumpkin stout has a place in the fridge from hereon in.  Find it wherever beer is sold in Massachusetts, before they tax it into oblivion to subsidize some highway project gone awry.
