Fall Flavors!

The Brew Kettle

Oktoberfest | 5.0% ABV
With each sip, you’ll be transported to a lively beer tent, surrounded by the sound of laughter, clinking glasses, and a polka band in the background. It’s like a liquid pretzel hug for your taste buds, a dance of caramel malts and toasted grains that’ll have you doing the chicken dance in no time.

Fat Head's Brewery

Oktoberfest | 5.0% ABV
Eins, Zwei, Drei, G'Suffa! Imported German malts give this modern Festbier a subtle sweetness. Lighter in body than a Marzen and deep gold in color with aromas of toasted grains. Crisp, crackery malt flavor balanced by German noble hop flavor and aroma. Smooth and highly refreshing.

Muskellunge Brewing Company

Drum Festbier | 6.0% ABV
The Drum Festbier is a less intense and lighter version of an Oktoberfest, with a medium to medium-high malty flavor and an impression of soft sweetness.

Bronzeback Oktoberfest | 5.5% ABV
This traditional Oktoberfest was fermented and lagered over the summer months to create a toasty malt flavor balanced with floral hops and medium body.

Sandy Springs Brewing Company

Oktoberfest | 5.8% ABV
A German Amber Lager that is elegant and clean with a full body, rich, and bready malted flavor

Peach Cobbler | 8.0% ABV
A Sour Ale fruited with peach puree and gently spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg.

Hazelnut Brown Ale | ABV
A new beer that is smooth, nutty, and perfect for fall!

UnHitched Brewing Company

Wet Fang | 5.8% ABV
A Saison style ale, this in most cases means a dry, drinkable and often lightly spicy (think clove and black pepper) beer. Wet Fang is highly drinkable and crisp with sticky fruit flavors and aromas, there are subtle spice notes from the yeast and this is all combined with fresh, bright, fruity, bitter, lucious, hop character courtesy of Auburn Acres “Triumph” hop variety and Yarian Malt Wheat and Pilsner Malts.

All Things Pumpkin!

The Brew Kettle

Pumpkin Drop | 5.0% ABV
A beautiful amber-orange with aromas of cinnamon, nutmeg, and roasted pumpkin. It’s smooth, spiced just right, and perfect for sweater weather, football Sundays, and crisp evenings around the fire pit.

Fat Head's Brewery

Spooky Tooth | 8.0% ABV
The pumpkin brew with a bite! Enticing amber color with aroma of sweet pumpkin pie, savory spices, and hints of sweet malt. Rich and creamy with a chewy mouthfeel that you can sink your teeth into. Flavors of pumpkin up front then sweet malt, pie crust, spice, hints of brown sugar, and a clean finish.

Muskellunge Brewing Company

Pumpkinseed Pumpkin Spiced Ale | 5.5% ABV
Welcome to Fall. This ale is brewed and fermented with 50 lbs of pumpkin, a mixture of spices, and Cascade hops to balance it all out, delivering to you a flavor reminiscent of pumpkin pie.

New Berlin Brewing Company

Haunted Grounds on Hillcrest | 7.5% ABV
This coffee blonde ale is carefully balanced with vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg to perfectly compliment the roasted pumpkin.
