10 Barrel to Release Jamaican Me Pumpkin
A second pumpkin beer from Bend, Oregon’s 10 Barrel Brewing is on its way to the Pacific Northwest. Jamaican me Pumpkin is the brewery’s second pumpkin bottle release for the fall season. This rum barrel aged Imperial Pumpkin Ale sat for over a year in the barrels and finished at 10.4% ABV and 40 IBUs.
According to the brewery: “We had a theory that you could age almost anything in a Jamaican rum barrel and it would taste great so we decided to test that theory with an Imperial Pumpkin Ale. With over a year in the barrels we came to one conclusion: We were right!”
Jamaican Me Pumpkin is the latest beer in 10 Barrel’s annual barrel aged beer release following up 16 Barrels in 2013 and Rye’m or Treason in 2012. Jamaican Me Pumpkin will be available in the coming weeks in all good bottles shops and specialty grocery stores around OR, ID and WA and at the 10 Barrel Bend and Boise pubs.
