OktobeerFest Kalamazoo is less than two weeks away, at Homer Stryker Field, on Sat. October 18th. And it being in October, one of the beers featured will be Pumpkin Beers.

With the explosion of craft beers in the past decade has come the growth of seasonal beers. It's not just your plain old Miller and Bud anymore.

Paste Magazine has come up with a list of 47 pumpkin beers, with only two from Michigan and one from general area (New Holland's Ichabod, which got a nice comment). It's worth perusing the list just for the snarky "verdicts".

This isn't a complete list of pumpkin beers coming to OktobeerFest, but here's a sample:

Big Eddy Uber Oktoberfest from Leinenkugel
Pumpkin Chai from Saugatuck Brewing
Cross Eyed Jack Pumpkin from Latitude 41
Screaming Pumpkin Ale from Griffin Claw
Blue Moon's Pumpkin Ale
Sam Adams' Oktoberfest
Southern Tier's Pumpkin Ale
Hof Brau's Oktoberfest
