Thirsty, my friend? Then come to this year’s Half Moon Bay Art & Pumpkin Festival, October 13-14 … the adult beverage offerings have never been better.
“We’re excited and pleased with the exceptional quality and variety of our adult beverage offerings,” said Cameron Palmer, Festival Chairman. “It’s only fitting that a world-class festival offer a world-class drink menu that will absolutely fascinate and delight festivalgoers. People are gonna love it.”
This year’s festival-label wine is Half Moon Bay Winery’s limited-release 2010 Sauvignon Blanc. This handcrafted, small lot production wine comes from premium grapes grown on the rocky benchlands of Redwood Valley in Mendocino—it’s lovely, refreshing and very drinkable on its own. This refreshing, food friendly wine pairs perfectly with seafood and appetizers. It will be available by the glass along with Half Moon Bay Winery’s Fishermen’s Red, their gorgeous White Wine Blend, and La Nebbia sparkling wine and mimosas at two booths hosted by the Half Moon Bay Chamber of Commerce and Visitors Bureau. The Pumpkin Festival-label Sauvignon Blanc will be available by the bottle at The Beautification Committee merchandise booth.
Every year, Half Moon Bay Brewing Company celebrates the festival with a delicious, commemorative brew—Mavericks Pumpkin Harvest Ale. It’s always a big hit with beer lovers. “Every year, we look forward to seeing our customers and friends out enjoying the festival,” said Mike Laffen, Managing Partner. “It’s Half Moon Bay’s signature event and we’re delighted and honored to be part of it.”
Mavericks Pumpkin Harvest Ale #6 is a Pale Ale made with locally-grown Sugar Pie pumpkins that are roasted with a secret blend of spices and added to the brew kettle. The result is a subtle pumpkin pie spice flavor balanced by a biscuity maltiness. Deelish! Sam Adams Octoberfest, Sam Adams Boston Lager, Harvest Moon Pumpkin Ale, Coors and Coors Light will also be on tap.
Adding to the festive spirit, festivalgoers will be able to enjoy a Sauza Original Margarita or Cruzan Rum Premium Mojito for a deliciously refreshing beverage alternative. Genuine Sauza Blanco Tequila masterfully blended with premium triple sec gives Sauza Original Margarita—the world’s most popular cocktail—its distinctive, smooth, and mouth-watering flavor. Cruzan Aged Light Rum blended with fresh lime juice, soda, a dash of bitters and mint poured over ice and you’ve got a delicious mojito, perfect for a warm afternoon stroll. Add a splash of Pumpkin Spice Syrup and you’ve got a refreshing and colorful Pumpkin-rita or Pumpkin-ito.
Sip your favorite beverage in a beautiful, collector-item wine glass or beer mug adorned with this year’s stylish festival logo.
