Autumn ushers in an annual rebirth with a full harvest, longer nights, and in many cases, a new wardrobe. We’re celebrating the bounty of the season with a new beer that’s coming out in cans this week — Autumnation. Brewed with pumpkin, ginger and white pepper, and wet-hopped with just-harvested Citra hops from the oldest continually farmed hop farm in the country, it’s a burst of fresh, seasonal spices trapped in a 16-ounce. can. What does wet-hopping mean? It’s adding freshly harvested hops to beer in their natural form (not ground and pelletized), which can only happen at one point every year. We made a video on capturing these hops in their raw essence, featuring the hop farmer we worked with, which can be viewed here. Autumnation Ale video via SixpointVision These coppery-colored cans are a limited release that will fade out once all the leaves do. But not to worry, we’re releasing a different beer in cans for each season of the year. Expect cans of different colors from Sixpoint to come…

An orange-light amber colored beer with a three fingered off white head rising above. There's some hang time in the head. A thick ringlet is left behind. In profile, neither in the nose or tasting is this either a fruit or spiced beer. The piney hops are too intense. It is a good beer, light and crispy

Pours a somewhat hazy dark amber with a thick and rather persistent fine-bubbled ivory head. Aroma is VERY hoppy, more resiny than woody with an evergreen underpinning. Hops dominate the flavor with bitter evergreen and woody notes but let through some malt and citrus tones. Firm, smooth texture is quite lively and leaves a very hoppy finish. Come visit this nation. A fruit beer? Seems more like an IPA.

I dug the uniquness of this beer. Very very light on the pumpkin and spices, and hopped something akin to a Sierra Nevada harvest ale, with ample bitterness on the back end. Went back for seconds :)

Mildly floral hops and doughy malt. No sense of pumpkin. Clear copper body with a filmy white head and decent lacing. Light bodied, bitter and clean, yet sort of empty throughout. Nice fresh hop presence, but nothing to back it up.
