Fall is ON. The days are getting crisper and the nights longer. It’s time for campfire drinking that demands the right kinds of beer…And here are some great new craft beer variety packs that celebrate the changing season.
Dogfish Head Fall Variety Pack
When it comes to seasonal variety packs, Milton, Delaware-based Dogfish Head Craft Brewery never disappoints and its Fall Variety Pack is a perfect fall pick.
This uber-fun package includes two fan-favorites, 60 Minute IPA, Slightly Mighty, something brand new, Tasty Traveler Jasmine Rice Lager, along with Delaware-centric, Blue Hen Pilsner, a beer that was developed at Its small-batch brewpub in Rehoboth.

60 Minute IPA (6.0% ABV) – 60 Minute IPA is continually hopped for 60 full minutes with a boatload of intense Northwest hops. The result is an abundantly hoppy, but not crushingly bitter brew with bold citrusy and grassy hop flavors.
Slightly Mighty (4.9% ABV) – The first and number-one selling* lo-cal IPA in America, Slightly Mighty is a full-flavored, lo-cal IPA with just 95 calories per can.** Brewed with a hint of monk fruit for body and complexity, Slightly Mighty is slight in calories and carbohydrates yet mighty in hop character, throwing tropical notes of pineapple, coconut, mango and citrus.
Tasty Traveler Jasmine Rice Lager (5% ABV) – Making its debut, Tasty Traveler Jasmine Rice Lager is a crisp, refreshing lager brewed with crafted with lemongrass, wildflower honey and makrut lime lea
Blue Hen Pilsner (4.8% ABV) – Blue Hen Pilsner is a crisp and refreshing pilsner brewed with only four ingredients – water, yeast, earthy Saaz hops, and Delaware-grown and malted barley. Giving a loving nod to Dogfish Head’s home state, the beer’s label features the Delaware state bird and a color palette similar to that of the Delaware state flag.

The Schlafly Biergarten Variety Pack
Schlafly Beer has an interesting new 12-pack that celebrates what we think the St. Louis craft brewery does best, it’s lagers, Oktoberfest beers and Bavarian-Style ales. And with fall’s arrival, it is right on time.
“Schlafly’s Oktoberfest is such a huge hit with our customers for the fall season that we wanted to create a full pack that embodies German seasonal beers,” says Schlafly CEO, Fran Caradonna. “This is our take on classic recipes and a nod to the rich history of that particular tradition.”
The 12-pack is Schlafly’s celebration of the German Biergarten tradition: an outdoor gathering spot to enjoy local beers located in villages and towns across Germany.
Schlafly’s Biergarten variety 12-Pack features three cans of each of the four beers:
Dunkel Lager (ABV: 4.5%): Exceptionally smooth with a malt-forward flavor. Amber brown in color with a rich, medium-body – it refreshes like a true lager, yet it’s made to be savored slowly.
Oktoberfest Amber Lager (ABV: 5.5%): A classic crowd-pleaser, this traditional Märzen from 16th century Bavaria is clean and balanced in its amber color, sweetness, and toasted malts.
Munich Helles Lager (ABV: 4.5%): A clean yet complex lager with pleasant spicy notes, delicate noble hops, and a distinct white head. It’s more malt-forward and has a crisp and dry finish.
Bavarian Weiss Ale (ABV: 5.1%): An unmistakable fruity banana flavor with notes of clove, this malty and refreshing brew is hazy and light-golden in color with a medium-light body.
