Halloween candy may be for the kids, but adults can enjoy seasonal fun too with these spooky sips from Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant.

As Halloween creeps closer, some of us might be trying to get our hands on all the ghoulish goodies our favorite restaurants are offering before spooky season is over. And if you’re looking for Halloween drinks, there's a new brew offering dropping soon that’s sure to fit the bill.

Iron Hill’s Witches Brew Flight, available Oct. 27 through Oct. 29, features prix-fixe beer and Halloween candy pairings for $10.50.

The four-beer flight includes:

  • Pig Iron Porter paired with a Reese’s peanut butter cup. Teeming with malt flavors of toffee, chocolate and hints of almond, the English-style Porter pairs perfectly with the classic chocolate and peanut butter combination of the Reese’s cup.

  • Pumpkin Ale paired with a Kit Kat. Iron Hill’s Pumpkin Ale is bursting with vanilla, caramel and toast, with a cinnamon flavor throughout that complements the Kit Kat on the side.

  • Philly Phavorite IPA paired with Starburst. The Philly Phavorite features sweet citrus and pineapple, bold in both aroma and flavor, that tastefully blend with the punchy fruit kick of Starburst.

  • Brambleberry Farmhouse Ale paired with Swedish Fish. The tart citrus fruit and juicy raspberries of the ale are highlighted by the berry, sugary punch of a Swedish Fish, especially if you pop the candy in your mouth right after a sip of your drink.

For King of the Hill members, Iron Hill’s loyalty program, you’ll be treated to a complimentary fifth pairing with your Witches Brew Flight order.

The bonus drink pairs Little Red Wagon, a strawberry rhubarb kettle sour, with Twizzlers. We won’t tell you to play with your food, but a Twizzler straw sounds like a perfect idea for this drink.

For the parents with little ones, your kids can join in on the fun with a milk and candy pairing for $3.
