PIKE HARLOT’S HARVEST PUMPKIN ALE
It’s time to harvest pumpkins!
Pike Harlot’s Harvest reminds us that Pike Brewing was founded in the LaSalle Hotel, a former brothel run by Madam Nellie Curtis. Nellie’s girls were sometimes called harlots, though we imagine they were more affectionately known as ‘pumpkins’. This brew is big, bold and voluptuous, bursting with caramel and spices.

Watch for a WOLF IN THE WOODS
To be released September 21, 2015
Late summer and early fall heralds fresh hop season. Pike Brewing’s lead brewer, Art Dixon, traveled the short distance to the Yakima Valley to harvest fresh Simcoe hops. On September 4th we brewed with these hops (within 24 hours of their harvest) to ensure that we captured the essence of all their fresh and floral character in Pike Wolf in the Woods. Hoppy and refreshing with tons of Simcoe hop flower aroma, this seasonal is rich in pine, passion fruit and citrus notes.
Why did we name it Wolf in the Woods? That is the literal translation of humulus lupulus, the Latin word for hops.
MALT VARIETIES: Skagit Valley Alba, Skagit Valley Copeland Munich, Cara-Pils, Malted Wheat, Rolled Oats
HOP VARIETIES: All Simcoe Hop Flower (wet, fresh hops).
- IBU: 26
- ABV: 5.1%
- OG: 1.050
Pike Wolf in the Woods will be available starting in late September on draft only.
