Pairing One: Hand Rolled Hazy IPA and the Macy’s Parade
Raise your glass to the sky-scraping floats and dazzling performances of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade with our Hand Rolled Hazy IPA.

Whether you’re gathered with family in the living room or braving the cold streets of New York City, the Hand Rolled Hazy IPA complements the festive spirit, turning a tradition into a memorable experience.
Pairing Two: Pineapple Express Tropical IPA and Cooking the Feast
Turn the kitchen into a popping tropical paradise as you cook the centerpiece of your Thanksgiving feast with our Pineapple Express Tropical IPA in hand. The 7.2% ABV adds a bit of a kick to the culinary experience, matching the boldness of flavors with every memorable dish on the table. As the pineapple and hoppy notes intertwine with each sip, the result is a harmonious dance on your taste buds. Pineapple Express transforms the art of cooking a Thanksgiving feast into a wild culinary adventure with twists and turns hiding in each recipe, making the kitchen the heart of this holiday’s action.
Pairing Three: My Ruca American Pale Ale and Playing or Watching Football
Score big this Thanksgiving by teaming up our My Ruca American Pale Ale with the spirited energy of football. Whether you’re on the field tossing around the pigskin or lounging on the couch cheering for your favorite team, My Ruca’s balanced blend of hops and malt adds an extra layer of enjoyment to the game. The citrusy and floral notes complement the excitement, creating a winning combination for fans, players, and hobbyists alike. From touchdowns to tackles, savor every moment with the refreshing taste of our award-winning My Ruca APA.
Pairing Four: Scepter IPA and Playing Board Games
As the feast settles and the evening unfolds, crown your Thanksgiving with the king of IPAs – our Scepter IPA. This bold and majestic brew, with its assertive hop profile, stands tall against the complexities of your favorite board games. Whether you’re strategizing in a game of Risk or laughing over a round of Pictionary, the Scepter IPA reigns supreme, enhancing the fun with its robust flavors. Transform your post-dinner traditions into a royal affair with Scepter IPA, the perfect companion for a victorious game night.
