Rohrbach Beer: Oktoberfest
Movie: Hocus Pocus
Fall wouldn’t be complete without a nod to classic Halloween fun, and Hocus Pocus is the perfect movie to kick off the season. Pair it with Rohrbach's Oktoberfest, a tribute to the authentic, German-style lager. Brewed with Vienna and Munich malts and balanced with the bitterness of German noble hops, this full-bodied beer is packed with flavor. The malt-forward richness of Oktoberfest complements the playful yet eerie atmosphere of the Sanderson sisters' adventures, making for a magical movie night.
Rohrbach Beer: Space Kitty Double IPA
Movie: The Shining
For a more intense experience, turn to The Shining, a film that demands a beer with bold character. Rohrbach’s Space Kitty Double IPA fits the bill with its strong hop profile and citrus notes. The beer's intensity mirrors the psychological thrill and suspense of the film, creating a pairing that keeps you engrossed from start to finish. As Jack Torrance descends into madness, Space Kitty Double IPA will keep your senses sharp and your taste buds engaged.
Rohrbach Beer: Scotch Ale
Movie: Dead Poets Society
When you’re in the mood for something thoughtful and poignant, Dead Poets Society is a great choice. Pair it with Rohrbach’s Scotch Ale, which boasts rich caramel notes and a slightly smoky finish. The beer's deep, malty flavor echoes the film's themes of reflection, nostalgia, and the passage of time. Just like the characters in the movie, you’ll find yourself savoring every moment with this classic pairing.
Rohrbach Beer: Vanilla Porter
Movie: Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
For a night of dark comedy and supernatural mischief, pair Rohrbach’s Vanilla Porter with the latest Tim Burton release, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. This rich, complex English-style porter, brewed with chocolate, caramel, black, and roasted barley, and finished with authentic vanilla extract, perfectly complements the quirky, gothic vibe of the film. The layered flavors of the Vanilla Porter mirror the film's eccentricity, while the vanilla adds a sweet twist that pairs well with the movie's mix of humor and horror. Just be careful not to say "Beetlejuice" three times!
Fall is the perfect time to cozy up with a great beer and a classic movie. With Rohrbach’s carefully crafted beers and these thoughtfully selected films, your movie nights are set to be unforgettable. So grab your favorite brew, pick a movie, and enjoy the flavors and stories that make this season so special.
Cheers to a fall full of great beers and memorable movies!
