The Great Pumpkin Madness Has Returned to Satire Brewing
It’s that time of year again in Thornton. The air is crisp, the fall colors are showing off, and the annual pumpkin craze has officially taken over the taproom at Satire Brewing Company.
If you know us, you know we don't do anything halfway—especially when it comes to seasonal brews. Why stop at one token fall beer when you can create an entire spectrum of squash-fueled goodness? We’ve loaded our taps with seven completely different pumpkin beers, each packing its own distinct personality. Whether you prefer something light and refreshing, rich and decadent, sour and barrel-aged, or ridiculously bold, we have a tap waiting for you. (Yes, even for those of you who swear you "don't do pumpkin beers.")

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: I really don't like traditional pumpkin beers. Is there actually anything here for me?
A: Absolutely. We made sure this lineup wasn't just seven variations of pie spice. If you hate pie spices, try Plumpkin (a bright, zesty cream ale) or Pumpkin Fraud (sweet, smooth, and made without any real pumpkin). If you love big barrel-aged sours, Barrel Aged Sour Jack Of will completely shatter your expectations of what a pumpkin beer can be.
Q: Can I get all seven beers in a single flight?
A: Yes! Our pumpkin flight is specifically designed so you can taste the entire lineup side-by-side. It’s the best way to compare notes, find your favorite, and argue with your drinking buddies over which one takes the crown.
Q: How long will these seven pumpkin beers be available?
A: They are available while supplies last through the fall season. Because these are small-batch brews, certain popular variations (especially our high-ABV and barrel-aged options) tend to tap out quickly. Come get them while all seven are flowing!
Q: Are crowlers or growler fills available for the pumpkin lineup?
A: To-go availability depends on current tap levels. Stop into the taproom or ask your server when you visit to see which pumpkin brews are available for crowler fills to take home.
