I drank the Hoptober after having a Flying Dog Doggie Style Classic Pale Ale.
I wrote: "The Hoptober tastes super piney. There's not much of a taste until it goes down the throat or reaches the back of the mouth. Upon burping I could taste the piney flavor." 10:14 pm
I followed the Hoptober with a New Belgium Fat Tire Amber Ale.

Website Information:
Five hops and four malts make Hoptober Golden Ale a veritable cornucopia of the earth. Pale and wheat malt are mashed with rye and oats to create a medium-bodied ale with a creamy mouthfeel.
Centennial, Cascade, Sterling, Willamette, and Glacier hops form a bonfire of citrus notes, fruity cheers and a bold finale.
Seasonal in August, September, October.
