Fall is in the air, Spooky Season is here and The HOP is back with an all-new, blood-curdling, bone-chilling episode just in time for Halloween! Per tradition, Stephen & Gabe hit the mics once again to sample a wide variety of pumpkin ales. Despite the divisive nature of the style, there’s nothing better than a balanced and well-crafted pumpkin ale to help celebrate All Hallow’s Eve. First up, the boys share a beer from Lone Pine Brewing, a fast-growing company out of Portland, ME. Then, Gabe stops by Ellicottville Brewing in the Catskills while Stephen heads to Lexington Brewing, the first Kentucky beer ever to be featured on the show.

Featured beers: Lone Pine Pumpkin Party, Ellicottville Pumpkinville Latte and Kentucky Pumpkin Barrel Ale. Plus: Super incorrect World Series predictions and a guy in New Zealand forms a band with Mom & Dad!
