    Let me be honest, this was not my brainchild. A colleague of mine who is also a lover of all things booze. He told me about this amazing drink his wife created. The combination of a pumpkin ale with vanilla ale in a caramel and cinnamon sugar rim was a brilliant combination. An addicting combination, to be honest, in this vanilla pumpkin ale mule.  So, with permission, I bring you this very tasty vanilla pumpkin ale mule.

    I am sure there are plenty of pumpkin ales out in the market in the fall. Lots of local breweries make them. I bought a sampler pack of craft beers Samuel Adams made for the season. In this variety pack was a 20 Pounds of Pumpkin beer. I decided this would be the beer I tried this recipe out on.

    To rim the glass, simply pour a little caramel ice cream topping on a small plate and cinnamon and sugar on another plate. Use a tall and thin high ball glass. It fits perfectly.

    Once you have the decadent caramel and sugared rim, start by pouring in one shot of vanilla vodka. For the coldest cocktail, be sure to keep the vodka in the freezer.

    Follow the vanilla vodka with the pumpkin beer. Don't worry if there is a little beer head, it will go down. The combination of the pumpkin flavor with the traditional fall spices combine perfectly with the vanilla vodka. And of course, takes the alcohol content up a notch.
