2026 Fall Seasonals Are Here!

GREAT LAKES BREWING CO. INTRODUCES FALL SEASONAL LINEUP
Biergarten Party Pack Debuts, Oktoberfest and Limited Releases Return

CLEVELAND, July 28, 2026 — Great Lakes Brewing Co. (GLBC) announces its fall lineup, anchored by seasonal favorite Oktoberfest and the new Biergarten Party Pack, alongside returning Joe Thomas-collaboration 73 Kolsch in select markets, and Nosferatu Double Red IPA.

Celebrated Oktoberfest Returns
Often heralded as an exemplar of the style, the brewery’s seasonal Oktoberfest returns to all markets this August in a wide variety of packages including cans, bottles, and draft.

Great Lakes Brewing Company returns as the Official Craft Beer Sponsor of Cleveland Oktoberfest, Cleveland’s largest annual outdoor event, taking place September 4-7 and 11-12.

Biergarten Party Pack Debuts
Following in the footsteps of its 2026 seasonal predecessors Irish Party Pack and Sunshine Party Pack, the new Biergarten Party Pack Variety 12-Pack releases to all markets this September. Anchored by “super seasonal” Oktoberfest, the pack also includes two exciting new brews: a 4.9% ABV Bavarian-inspired German Pils, and 6.1% ABV Apple Pie Eliot Ness Amber Lager. German Pils carries on GLBC’s traditions as a respected lager brewery. First served as a limited infusion at brewery events, Apple Pie Eliot Ness features autumnal apple pie spice flavors to complement its smooth, rich malt body. A blend of heritage, tradition, and innovation, Biergarten Party Pack highlights seasonal flavors crafted for fall celebrations.
