The weather may be cooling down, but these ginger beers (and their autumnal activity pairings) are fire.

It’s time to say goodbye to beaches, spritzes and sunburn and say hello to sweaters, ginger beer and whatever the hell ‘pumpkin spice’ is. That’s right, friends, it's autumn time – or as the Americans like to call it, ‘fall’. 

We know, it can be a bummer moving from the summer hols into the colder months, but think of it this way – you’ve got more time for indoor activities and plenty of candid foliage photo ops for the ‘gram. And yes, this does mean we park the long sunny days for now, but it's not all doom and gloom – autumn colours are beautiful (you look great in orange), the temp is actually comfortable, and it’s the perfect time to enjoy a time-honoured autumn classic: ginger beer. So, without further ado, we’ve devised a hit list of essential autumn activities and the ginger beer you should be drinking them with.

1. Games night and Ginger Resistance Original Ginger Beer

What are the four things that make a games night a games night? Your mates, cold weather, ginger beer and at least one outraged flip of the board. Sore losers and games nights go hand-in-hand. So when things turn a little ugly or when the heat’s turned up on that tense game of Monopoly, it’s nice to cool things down with a refreshing sip of a delicious ginger beer. Our pick for a games night ginger bevvy? The spicy yet mild, smooth yet sharp Ginger Resistance Original Ginger Beer. It’s delicious and comes in a super handy 10 pack for sharing (or not).

2. Making dumplings (from scratch) and Better Beer Ginger Beer

The making of a dumpling is a ritualistic and eye-opening experience. It’s a great way to weed out your cooking friends from your “can’t boil an egg” friends. Folding dumplings with your mates, snug and warm inside, having a laugh with ya fave ginger beer, is a truly wholesome experience. AND, best of all, when the dumplings are ready to eat you’ve got a perfectly matched ginger beer to go alongside it. Our suggestion? The flavour of Better Beer Ginger Beer pairs brilliantly with the soy sauce you’ll be dipping your handmade dumplings into.

3. Picnic amongst the foliage and Ginger Resistance Cinnamon & Lime

One of the best things about autumn is the potential for a foliage photo shoot. Picture this, a red tartan rug, beanies, scarves, a can of ginger beer, maybe a fancy charcuterie board surrounded by the red and yellow foliage of autumn. Does that not sound like the best Insta set-up ever? We think so. Shooting aside, a picnic in autumn is a vibe, particularly with some ace ginger beer to warm up your belly. We reckon the irresistible Ginger Resistance Cinnamon & Lime is ideal for such an occasion. You can thank us later.

4. Crocheting and Amply Ginger Beer

Sometimes the best autumn activity is one you do yourself in the comfort of your own home. We suggest crocheting. Don’t know how to crochet? Well, perhaps it's time to sit on TikTok for a few hours and pick up a new hobby. Either way, sitting under a blanket in your cosiest armchair calls for a lovely sweet bevvy. We suggest sipping a can of Amply Ginger Beer, it is the foolproof spicy accompaniment to the crocheting hobby you never knew you needed.
