Have you bothered to try any....or at least any of the decent ones....as some are crap.
Thankfully the world does live by the Reinheitsgebot.
Thankfully, it does not. There are quite a few good beers out there that use fruits and spices to add distinctive flavors to the beers. With the distinct fruit flavors of certain hops, it is a natural addition. (For example, Amarillo hops add a flavor of orange or tangerine to the beer in which they are used.) Spices seem to be a perfectly fine additive for rum. Why would anyone think it is a bad thing for beer?
I love pumpkin ale. It is often made with both fruit and spices.
BTW, the 1516 Beer Purity Law called for Barley, Hops, and Water. Yeast wasn't mentioned. Since it called for Barley, beer made with malted Wheat, Rye, or Oatmeal would not be allowed. No more Oatmeal Stout or hefeweizen.
I am not really a big fan of wines in general. I will drink them if offered them, but I don't buy them on my own. I don't really like anything super sweet in general.

There are spiced wines, fruit liquors...I find the disdain some have for different beer styles to be....well...rather ridiculous and seldom habingdon aNY thing ton dof eother personal taste preference.
I am not anti pumpkin beer...but they aren't a favorite. I did have a New Glarus pumpkin spice lust this year. New Glarus does their fruit beers very well.
I also. really enjoy some of the grapefruit hefewitzens and grapefruit ipas that are out there...it goes so well with, as you mention, the citrus-y hops varieties.
