Yes, you've earned the beers, an interesting and well documented tour, also directly related, I like that aspect of your entry.
I've very rarely ordered these tasting sets, I end up trying a lot but individually, I think I sorta could do with adopting this format from time to time.
The Pumpkin seems to be very appropriate for this time of year, sounds like a curious but fun mix, I would have given it a try too. I'm with you on the wheat ones, they're usually my safe bet, even if they're sometimes unexceptional it's hard not to like them. cheers to that extra glass!
Salud! :)
