Sweater weather is officially upon us, and you know what that means: it's time to trade in the light summer spritzes for the rich, cozy, and spiced flavors of autumn. That means pumpkin beer, hard cider and the controversial but well liked new fall contender, apple beer…. all of which are incomplete without a cinnamon sugar rim!
Ready to upgrade your autumnal drinking experience? Here is your ultimate pairing guide.
Pumpkin beer, hard cider and apple beer are all incomplete without a cinnamon sugar rim.
The Garnish GuideHard Apple Cider: Apple Pie in a Glass
There is nothing quite like the crisp, tartness of a hard apple cider on a brisk afternoon. But when you coat the rim of your glass with our perfectly balanced Cinnamon Sugar Rimmer, you instantly transform a standard cider into a slice of apple pie in a glass.
Angry Orchard Crisp Apple
The bright, robust apple flavor of this classic cider perfectly complements the warm, sweet notes of our cinnamon sugar blend. Wipe the rim of your pint glass with a wedge of fresh apple, dip it generously into our rimmer, and pour.

Apple Beer: The Light & Crisp Twist
If you love the flavor of apples but prefer the drinkability and fizz of a traditional lager or light beer, apple beers are having a massive moment right now. These brews offer a subtle, fruity sweetness that absolutely begs for a spiced rim.
Busch Light Apple & Garage Beer Apple
You can't talk about apple beer without bowing down to the legendary Busch Light Apple. It's crisp, it's refreshing, and a cinnamon sugar rim gives it an undeniable gourmet upgrade. We are also huge fans of Garage Beer Apple—it's light, crushable, and the cinnamon sugar cuts through the clean finish perfectly. It turns a casual tailgate beer into a festive fall treat.
Pumpkin Beer: The Cozy Classic
Pumpkin beer is the undisputed king of autumn brewing. Brimming with notes of nutmeg, clove, and allspice, these beers are practically designed to be paired with our Cinnamon Sugar Rimmer. The rim acts as the "crust" to your liquid pumpkin pie.
Southern Tier Pumking & Whole Hog Pumpkin Ale
For a bold, imperial experience, look no further than Southern Tier's Pumking. It's rich, buttery, and heavily spiced; our rimmer amplifies its dessert-like qualities. If you want something that tastes like it was poured straight out of a magical tavern, Whole Hog Pumpkin Ale is a must-try. The toasted sugar and sweet cinnamon from our rimmer elevate the roasted malt profile of the beer beautifully.
The Perfect Pair
Dehydrated apple on the glass, cinnamon sugar on the rim. Two bags, every fall pour covered.
