Crunchy dry leaves. Smoke in the air. A can in the hand. Good friends around the bonfire. These are the fall days we look forward to every year. These are the moments that make memories, and it all calls for something special to drink to top it all off. Before you start roasting your marshmallows, pack your cooler with these backyard favorites!
Pabst Blue Ribbon
A beer so iconic, we all know the acronym: PBR. The Pabst Blue Ribbon American Lager is a label that goes back to 1844. Every can is a testament to the almost 200-year legacy of one of the most renowned brewers around.
The lager is made from select grains and a blend of American and European hops and PBR’s proprietary yeast concoction. It’s smooth, 4.7% ABV, crisp, and full-bodied, and always good for all the time. Pairs well with spicy pizza, warm soft pretzels, and meat and cheese boards. The perfect backyard bonfire can? DONE.
Lange Winery
Lange Winery is a Willamette Valley winery in the lush and green state of Oregon. The Pacific Northwest label is crafted with an enduring love of nature, embodied in the fly fishing hook on every bottle. This region is known for its outdoorsy flair, and it shows in these exceptional but accessible bottles of wine. Try two of our favorites:
- The Pinot Noir Willamette Valley Classique: This bottle is aged in 15% new French oak barrels and carries aromas like cranberry and spicy blood orange with a taste of red raspberry, guava, and cherry.
- Pairs Well With: Grilled salmon, goat cheese salad, and a creamy mac and cheese.
- The Chardonnay Willamette Valley Classique: This bottle is crisp and fruit-forward with lively aromas of citrus, stone, and tropical fruits and an intense minerality with a lengthy finish.
- Pairs Well With: Clam chowder, herb-crusted chicken, and teriyaki vegetable kabobs.
Gather your crew, light the fire, and raise a glass. With PBR and Lange Winery, your backyard bonfire is set for the season.
