Mmmmm...Pumking

Deagan's Kitchen and Bar tapped Southern Tier Pumking Imperial Pumpkin Ale today, just in time for Deagan's Bike Night tonight. Coincidence? We don't think so.

What IS a coincidence is that we can never think of Pumking without thinking of Krista's costume at last year's "All Hail the Ale!" Night Ride for Cleveland Beer Week. Doesn't she look beer-riffic??

Which reminds us: It's not too early to start planning YOUR beer costume for this year's Night Ride for Cleveland Beer Week, which will be Saturday, October 15. (Click here for all the event details.)

Beer costumes are not required to ride, but wearing one will certainly ensure that your loyalty to the holy alliance between beer and bicycling is not questions. Plus they're fun, dammit.

To help inspire you in the next 30 days, we will be periodically posting pictures of other beer-riffic Night Riders from last year. You know what else will help inspire you? A beer. And a bike ride. See? FUN.
