You’ve heard of a Kegerator, but how about a keg-pumpkin? You’ll find five at Khoury’s Fine Wine and Spirits on October 30, when the liquor store/hangout will use the seasonal squash to serve up some seasonal suds.

“We’re basically doing the same thing [as using a firkin] but with a pumpkin,” owner Issa Khoury says, adding that each pumpkin will range from 50 to 100 pounds. “It’s just something different and fun.”
Khoury asked a handful of local breweries to craft something festive for the store’s third-annual Halloween bash, and the tap lineup sounds autumnally delicious: Bad Beat’s Oktoberfest Märzen, CraftHaus’ Fall Maple Spice Ale, a pumpkin ale from Big Dog’s, Joseph James' Apricot Tart sour and a version of Tenaya Creek’s Hauling Oats Oatmeal Stout infused with coffee and cinnamon.
At $25, the party’s all-you-can-drink price point is right. So break out that costume and drink as much as you want! That is, until the keg—er, pumpkin—is kicked.
