Alongside favourites like Rose City Beer Works, Kingsville Brewery, Walkerville Brewery, Manitoulin Brewing, and more, The Beerded Dog Brewing Company is rolling into Windsor’s Nightmare on Beerie Street beer festival with a lineup that’s basically a Halloween candy bag for grown-ups.
The festival takes over the WindsorEats Food Hall on Saturday, October 4, 2025, bringing together some of the region’s best breweries for a day of spooky sips and fall fun. And while there’ll be plenty of brews to sample, Beerded Dog is bringing three that should be at the very top of your list.
Led by brewer Ellie Gurdebeke — a two-time Master of the Brewniverse champion — Beerded Dog’s offerings are a mix of playful, seasonal, and straight-up delicious. Here’s what you’ll want to try:
🧊 Slush Puppy Sour
Fruity, tart, and just the right amount of nostalgia. This sour is like your favourite corner store slushy, but with a grown-up twist.
🌙 Bark At the Moon Pumpkin Porter
A dark and cozy pour that balances roasted malts with subtle pumpkin spice. It’s fall in a glass, best enjoyed while people-watching in your Halloween best.
🍂 Barktoberfest Lager
A crisp and clean festbier-style lager that screams Oktoberfest season. Perfect for pairing with festival eats or just sipping between heavier beers.
