FANGORIA and Phantom Carriage Brewery kick off October with their partnered Imbue of Kang Kob beer launch. The fall brew is described as a "play on a deconstructed Thai pumpkin soup." Fall is often associated with pumpkin flavors. Coffee, food, beer, and all other favorable items undergo a fall-themed makeover throughout this time.
The Imbue of Kang Kob beer follows the pumpkin trend with an added Thai flare. In addition to the beer launch, the partnership put together a screening event. Peter Jackson's classic and hard-to-find 1992 horror movie Dead Alive will be shown by FANGORIA and Phantom Carriage Brewery at the Phantom Theatre and the Graveyard Patio. Guests will enjoy a curated two-course dinner featuring Phantom Carriage beers.
