From Oktoberfest to Halloween: The Ultimate October Beer Calendar

From Oktoberfest to Halloween: The Ultimate October Beer Calendar

October is beer month. From German-style lagers to dark pumpkin stouts, there’s a can for every occasion—and Draft Top makes them even better.

Your October Beer Pairings:

  • Oct 1–7 (Oktoberfest): Märzens, German pilsners, festbiers

  • Oct 13 (Friday the 13th): Black IPAs or dark porters

  • Oct 28–31 (Halloween Weekend): Pumpkin ales, cinnamon stouts, spiced lagers

Make It a Tasting Experience: Grab a 4- or 6-pack, use Draft Top to go topless, and build your own tasting notes sheet. Add chocolate pairings, cheese boards, or warm pretzels to bring it all together.
