Hanging on to the last little bit of summer? Grab a Jumping Cow Amber Ale. Just like the golden sunsets of early autumn, this ale is sweet and smooth as a summer day, tawny and crisp as a fall morning. Jumping Cow is the perfect September beer—a blend of sweet malt and tangy hops in a delicious amber ale. Trader Joe’s really knows how to stock its beer aisle this time of year, but Jumping Cow is easily my fall favorite.
