How to Make a “Beer Jack-o-Lantern”
It’s Halloween season and the pumpkin beers (and pumpkins) are in full effect! How do you take a holiday revered by the children as the best holiday ever (next to Christmas) and make it fun for you as an adult? That’s easy! Create a Beer Jack-o-Lantern! If you’re like us, your first question is probably, “What is that?!” Well, we’ve actually got TWO different types to show you! Shall we begin?
#1 Beer Dispensing Jack-o-Lantern
Materials needed:
*Pumpkin
*Sharp Knife
*Large Spoon
*Your Beer of Choice
*Spigot
Directions:
*Cut a circle around the stem to create a lid, much like you would do for a regular Jack-o-Lantern using your sharp knife.
*Using your large spoon, dig out all of the “guts” and seeds. Careful, it gets messy quickly.
*Cut a small hole near the bottom of the pumpkin (just big enough to place your spigot in.
*Place the spigot in the hole.
*Pour your beer into the top of the pumpkin (pumpkin flavor is probably most appropriate, feel free to order some from us at beerrightnow.com)
*Grab some frosted mugs and enjoy!
#2 Jack-o-Lantern carved to look like your favorite beer
Materials needed:
*Pumpkin
*Sharp Knife
*Large Spoon
*Your Beer of Choice (For drinking, and for inspiration, of course. beerrightnow.com)
*Lots of patience, especially if your design is intricate like the PBR one
*Pen or permanent marker
*A candle to light up your creation!
Directions:
*Cut a circle around the stem to create a lid
*Using your large spoon, dig out all of the “guts” and seeds. Careful, it gets messy quickly.
*Once you have hollowed out your pumpkin, look at the design of your can, and draw it on your pumpkin with a pen or permanent marker.
*Using your knife, cut out the design. For parts that don’t need to be a hole, be sure not to dig the knife in too deeply.
*Sip your beer while admiring your work.
*Place a candle inside and glow with pride!
Happy Halloween and Cheers!
