Bucks County Brewery Tapping Pumpkin Ale This Friday The 13th

NEW HOPE, PA — Check one box off your fall bucket list this weekend, with the debut of Pumpkin Ale at Triumph Brewery. The New Hope Brewery announced it will be releasing its highly-anticipated Pumpkin Ale this Friday, the 13th.

The local brew pub, located in Union Square, makes the fall favorite each year. And each year, its release is a highly anticipated by lovers of the pumpkin flavor.

But if alcohol isn't your thing, and you're still looking to make the most out of the flavors and fun of fall, here's a look at Patch's fall Bucks County Bucket List:

Eat cider donuts at Solebury Orchards
We're putting this first for a reason. As in, they're delicious. And if you don't eat them, well, we just feel bad for your fall. There's lots to love about Solebury Orchards, located on Creamery Road in Solebury Township. But when you go to pick your apples, DO NOT forget the donuts. You might have to wait for a fresh batch; these puppies sell out quick. Click here for details.

See the scarecrows at Peddler's Village
Everyone in Bucks County knows about the scarecrows at Peddler's Village. It's a must-do with the kids in the fall. There are dozens of themed scarecrows created by local residents and groups. To kick off the fun, the Annual Scarecrow Festival will be held on Saturday, Sept. 16, and Sunday, Sept. 17 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

March in the Newtown Halloween Parade
This is a real-deal community Halloween Parade. Anyone can enter, you just need to register the morning of the event, which is held on State Street in Newtown Borough. Prizes are awarded by category. Don't underestimate your competition, however. There are some seriously amazing costumes flaunted at this parade. (One year, there was even a real, live miniature horse involved...how can you beat that?) Even if you don't enter, come to watch. It is held the Saturday before Halloween. Click here for details.

Navigate the corn maze at Hellerick's
Seriously, what fun is fall without a corn maze? Hellerick's Family Farm, four miles north of Doylestown, is the epicenter of fall family fun in Bucks County and the grounds feature a five-acre corn maze. But if getting lost in tall stalks of vegetation is not your idea of fun, or just seems downright creepy to you, then don't worry. There is a lot to keep you and the younger kids busy while your teens run through the maze. Other activities include: a tractor tire climb and tunnel; giant corn chute slides; a spider web climb and giant echo tubes. Click here for details.

Pick pumpkins at None Such Farms
Another fall gem in Bucks County is None Such Farms in Buckingham Township. They host a pumpkin picking festival weekends in October that features pick-your-own pumpkins and gourds, live bluegrass music, hayrides, a petting zoo and more. Great for little kids. Click here for details.

Eat pumpkin ice cream at Owowcow
If beer isn't your thing but the best way you know how to get into the fall spirit is by eating or drinking, then look no further. Owowcow's pumpkin ice cream will make you believe in miracles. It's like a really creamy, cold bite of the way pumpkin tastes in your dreams. As of Sept. 8, it is available at all three Owowcow locations. Click here for details.
