Early Pumpkin-Themed Beer Releases

Four Peaks Brewing Co. Debuts 'Pumpkin Porter' One Month Early

— August 5, 2021 — Lifestyle
Arizona-based brewery, Four Peaks Brewing Co., recently announced it will launch its signature Pumpkin Porter ahead of schedule. The move comes after the well-received early release in 2020. “We released Pumpkin Porter early last year because summer 2020 sucked; we just wanted to get it over with and skip ahead to fall,” says Four Peaks co-founder and head brewer Andy Ingram. “It was going to be just a one-time thing, but we discovered that people just love drinking Pumpkin Porter, even when it’s 105 outside. Maybe especially when it’s 105 outside.”

The Pumpkin Porter is available in bottles and kegs. Fans can get their first taste of this year's batch on draft at Four Peaks’ 8th Street brewpub in Tempe on Friday, August 6.
