In an honorable tribute to the approaching spooky season, this glowing Halloween beer can is the ideal package for a pumpkin ale. Designer Scott LePage created the [Griffin Claw Brewing Company’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/all-world-breakfast-burrito) glowing Halloween can for its popular ‘Screamin’ Pumpkin’ brew.

The aluminum can has been decorated with an appropriately mean-looking jack-o-lantern, which is the main focus atop the can’s red background. There is also a creepy tree branch poking its way into the scene. When the lights are off, the spooky jack-o-lantern emits an eerie glows as well as the can’s label.

The appropriate [glow-in-the-dark can of beer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/limited-edition-skeleton-bottle) is the perfect way for adults to participate in the playful holiday. It is also a great excuse to try to Griffin Claw Brewing Company’s [seasonal pumpkin ale](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haunted-harvest-pumpkin-spice-ale), which will only be available for a short time.
