Believe it or don't, I saw the first pumpkin beers of the season on the 30th of August.  If you attend farmers' markets you will know that even at the end of August, pumpkins are but a fond wish which tells me that brewers can't be using fresh pumpkins.  This might be why I liked the Church Key Pumpkin beer I had in May of 2014.  There is every chance that they had fresh pumpkins available to them when this was brewed.
