There’s been a wine revolution. 

Sure, we may have started out drinking it by the bottle, but now we have so many more options at our fingertips. So we have to know—how do you winedentify? 

Some things you should know about each: 

Bottle

Classic. While it may not be the most versatile or easy to carry around, it’s still a nice sentiment to bring a bottle of wine to a dinner party or on a date.

Box

For those times when you need a bit more than a bottle can provide. Whether you’re spending the weekend outdoors or having a larger party, a box can be the way to go. And we’ve come a long way since the beginning of boxed wine! You can now find plenty of great quality boxes with tons of varietals. Our personal favorite: Bota Box. 

Can 

Canned wine is relatively new to the scene, but can be pretty underrated. One can typically includes two entire glasses of wine. Plus, they’re easy to transport. They’re perfect for tailgates and picnics. Our favorite? House Wine. 

Wine seltzer

The newest way to winedentify is with a wine seltzer. Decoy Wine has a new line of wine seltzers, made with real fruit juice in a convenient can. Flavors include Rose with Cherry, Sauvignon Blanc with Vibrant Lime, Chardonnay with Clementine Orange, and Chardonnay with Lemon and Ginger.  

So, how do you winedentify? We want to know! Share your thoughts with us on Facebook or Instagram. 

We’re falling for these fall beers. Crisp, spicy, and smooth is the way to go this season. Whether you’re a pumpkin beer fan, a lighter beer fan, or a dark lager fan, we’ve got something you’ll love this fall. 

Guinness Nitro Coffee

Guinness Nitro Cold Brew Coffee is exactly what it sounds like: a coffee stout that hits you with the aroma of rich coffee, followed by the magical surge of nitro releasing hints of espresso, chocolate, and caramel.

Southern Prohibition Devil’s Harvest IPA

This is spooky good. It’s a golden, crushable IPA with a ghostly hue. Plus, breakfast IPA means you can drink it as early as you want on Halloween, right?!

Faubourg Blackened Voodoo Lager

Faubourg skillfully balances five roasted barley malts with two hop varieties. What we get is a dark, mysterious brew known for its bewitching character and magical spirit.

Hi-Wire kills it with this Märzen full of all the flavors you could want. It’s a rich Oktoberfest lager without the heavy finish.

Harpoon UFO Pumpkin 

We can’t pass up a good pumpkin beer, and we love UFO! This is a blend of seasonal spices paired with a subtle sweetness of real pumpkin puree. 

Those are our favorite fall brews—which one will you fall for this season? 

Whether you’re cheering your team on at their stadium or in your own home, we’ve got the best beer for tailgates. They’re easy to drink and perfect for the fall. Check them out.

Southern Prohibition’s Devil’s Harvest is a golden, crushable IPA with a ghostly hue. Whirlpool and dry hopping techniques lead to less bitterness and more aromas, all in a low ABV beer.

A blueberry taste that’s out of this world. UFO Maine Blueberry is as refreshing as it is delicious. 

Juicy hops, silky malt. Fruit-forward, modestly bitter, and smooth. Aggressively dry-hopped and less filtered because, according to Sierra Nevada, the haze is where the flavor is. 

Kopparberg USA combines fresh strawberries with the subtle taste of lime. This hard cider is perfect for a BBQ or hanging outside with your friends.

Clean. Clear. Crisp. Southern Prohibition Light American Lager is the light beer for any occasion.
