Craft Beers that Capture Fall’s Spirit

As the days grow shorter and the air carries a gentle chill, craft beer aficionados are treated to a symphony of flavors that perfectly mirror the essence of fall. This season offers a playground for brewers, where creativity intertwines with tradition to craft beers that evoke the very spirit of change and harvest.

Pumpkin Ales: At the forefront of fall’s beer offerings are pumpkin ales, a beloved tradition that marries the sweetness of pumpkin with the warmth of spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Each sip transports the drinker to a cozy kitchen, where pies cool on windowsills and memories of autumn’s past come alive.

Brown Ales: For those seeking beers with a more rustic character, brown ales step into the spotlight. Their toasted maltiness conjures images of crackling fires and wooded landscapes, making them the perfect companions for crisp evenings spent under starlit skies.

Spiced Lagers: Embracing the spirit of experimentation, spiced lagers infuse classic lager profiles with a medley of autumnal spices. From ginger and allspice to cardamom and vanilla, these beers unfold as aromatic journeys that delight the senses.

With Crowlers and More’s diverse range of packaging solutions, these autumn-inspired brews find a home that does justice to their character. From labeled cans that share their stories to  brite (blank) cans that are a canvas for creativity, the world of craft beer becomes not just a beverage, but a work of art.

Ciders: Orchards in Every Sip

As the leaves transform into a kaleidoscope of colors, the world of beverages turns its gaze to the orchards, where apples hang heavy and ripe, ready to be transformed into a beloved fall elixir: cider. With Crowlers and More’s dedication to packaging excellence, the journey of crafting and preserving these apple-infused wonders becomes an art form in itself.

Traditional Dry Ciders: These ciders are a tribute to simplicity, capturing the essence of apples in their purest form. Crisp, refreshing, and with a touch of tartness, they mirror the clarity of fall mornings, making every sip a nostalgic stroll through an apple orchard.

Innovative Spiced Blends: In the spirit of creativity, innovative cider blends emerge, weaving in the warmth of fall spices. Cinnamon, cloves, and even a hint of ginger transform these ciders into liquid comfort, wrapping you in their flavors as you enjoy the brisk outdoors.

Perry and Quince Wines: Expanding the cider horizon, consider exploring perry (pear cider) and quince wines. With a unique flavor profile that echoes the season’s complexity, these options add a touch of sophistication to your fall sips.

Crowlers and More’s can carriers ensure that your crafted ciders find a safe and stylish home, ready to be enjoyed on crisp picnics, by the fireside, or wherever autumn’s allure takes you.

Wine Varietals that Mirror Fall’s Palette

As the vineyards undergo their annual transformation, wine enthusiasts are treated to a symphony of flavors that reflect the changing landscape. With Crowlers and More’s commitment to packaging excellence, the experience of indulging in these fall-inspired wines becomes a sensory journey that captures the essence of the season.

Red Wines of Richness: Fall’s palate finds its reflection in red wines, where varietals like Merlot and Zinfandel paint glasses with hues of crimson and garnet. The notes of dark berries, warming spices, and hints of earthiness evoke images of autumn leaves and create the perfect backdrop for cozy evenings.

Chardonnays: A Balance of Complexity: White wine lovers will find their sanctuary in Chardonnays that seamlessly blend the lightness of the season with the complexity of oak aging. With delicate hints of vanilla and spice, they encapsulate the interplay between autumn’s gentleness and its resolute character.

Decadence in Dessert Wines: For those seeking an indulgent experience, dessert wines like late harvest and ice wines offer symphonies of sweetness. These wines, born from grapes that cling to the vine a little longer, tell tales of patience and reward, pairing impeccably with fall-inspired desserts.

With Crowlers and More’s labeled cans, your chosen wines are adorned in packaging that not only preserves their flavors but also reflects your appreciation for the season’s aesthetic. But our journey continues.

The richness of cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg harmonizes perfectly with these spirits, creating drinks that encapsulate the very heart of fall’s comfort.

Apple-Infused Whiskey Mixes: Building on the quintessential fall fruit, apple-infused whiskey cocktails seamlessly blend tradition with innovation. The delightful tang of apples, entwined with the warmth of whiskey, results in concoctions that transport you to apple orchards laden with the promise of autumn.

Pumpkin Liqueur Delights: Fall’s beloved gourd makes its mark on the world of canned cocktails with pumpkin liqueurs. Each sip is akin to indulging in a freshly baked pumpkin pie, with every ounce reflecting the essence of pumpkin, spices, and just the right touch of sweetness.
