Halloween is over, and it won’t be long before the Christmas season is upon us. This makes it the perfect time to tap into the harvest ales that Bucks County Ale Trail has to offer! Pick up a case of these dark hops options for a tailgate or cozying up next to the fire. Here are the top fall & winter picks from the Bucks County Ale Trail.

Broken Goblet
BRISTOL
Brewed just in time for hockey season, try their brand-new beer, Nightmare Fuel, a cream ale brewed with oranges and modeled after the infamous Philadelphia Flyers mascot himself.

Bucks County Brewery
PIPERSVILLE
Pick the Saison with Jalapeno to really spice up your winter night! It might feel cold, but it's hot, hot, hot.

Doylestown Brewing Co.
DOYLESTOWN
Aged with cinnamon sticks, try their Cinn’ister Stout beer on the upper level of their tasting room called The Still.

Free Will Brewing Company
PERKASIE
It tastes the way a coffeehouse smells! Try the C.O.B. (coffee,oatmeal,brown), an Imperial English Brown Ale with roasted coffee that includes notes of caramel, brown sugar and toasty graham cracker.

Great Barn Farm to Glass Tap Room
NEW HOPE
Nova Espero English Old Ale is an award-winning remake on a custom ale requested to be made by the Queen of England in 1852 for the crew on a ship completing a rescue mission in Canada.

Mad Princes Brewing
DOYLESTOWN
Grab a strong Scottish ale, the Bruce Wee – Enter the Flagon. A big, malty ale with a Kung Fu kick made from roasted barley to give it body and brown sugar that provides a dose of “molasses-y” goodness.

McCoole’s Red Lion Brewery
QUAKERTOWN
Slainte, Guinness lovers! Enjoy this Irish stout, the Cannonball Stout! It is dark, delicious and brewed inside McCoole’s Historic Red Lion Inn.

Neshaminy Creek Brewing Company
CROYDON
Try the Neshaminator. This holiday offering is brewed with orange blossom honey, malted wheat and dark Munich malt, a hint of Chocolate malt, and German Hallertau and Tettnanger hops. Prost!

The Proper Brewing Company
QUAKERTOWN
Summer may be over, but the sweetness remains with the Prop-er Cherry Stout. Rested on Ecuador cocoa nibs, this ripe brew is blended with chocolate cherry coffee.

Tower Hill Brewery
CHALFONT
It’s called Big Dipa and it comes with a punch! Warrior hops give the bittering flavor and Centennial hops give it its aroma and flavor.

Triumph Brewing Company
NEW HOPE
Bavarian beer lovers began celebrating the two-week long bash known as Oktoberfest in 1810 and still do today. Try Triumph’s version of Oktoberfest: a malty, amber, not-very-hoppy German lager.

Vault Brewing Company
YARDLEY
Brewed with roasted sweet potatoes, cinnamon, vanilla and nutmeg and served on nitro, their Sweet Potato Ale truly is a liquid version of sweet potato pie.

Naked Brewing Co.
HUNTINGDON VALLEY
It’s not scary, baby, or posh...It’s Ginger’s Spice Wheat Beer, and it’s flavored with pumpkin pie spice and fresh ginger for the fall!

Moss Mill Brewing Company
HUNTINGDON VALLEY
Lucky for you, the brewery taps a new beer every Friday! Try their popular PA Brut, a play on the Brut IPA style taking over San Francisco. It’s a dry, light-bodied beer with a little bit of sweetness at the end.
