BOSTON, Sept. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ --Fall is undoubtedly Beer Season. From tailgating to the latest fall brew flavors, the pint glass is definitely half full - never half empty - for beer lovers in autumn. So, it's understandable why 38% of American beer drinkers admit that Cenosillicaphobia - the fear of an empty beer glass - is a relatable fear, according to a new survey1 commissioned by Samuel Adams and conducted online by The Harris Poll. In fact, 20% of American beer drinkers say they'd rather run into an ex than have an empty beer glass. This spooky season, Samuel Adams introduces Beer Fest, Fear Fest - the ultimate beer season challenge that's no match for your favorite fall seasonal brew, OctoberFest. Starting Sunday, October 1, head to Beer Fest, Fear Fest in partnership with Bucket Listers, to face your biggest fear this spooky season - Cenosillicaphobia.

Each week, one bold drinker that makes it through the scarescape with a full glass will be rewarded3 with a season's supply of chilled-to-the-bone OctoberFest, so their pint glass stays full all autumn long.

ABOUT SAMUEL ADAMS: THE BEER
Samuel Adams is a leading independent, American craft brewer that helped to launch the craft beer revolution. The brewery began in 1984 when Founder and Brewer Jim Koch used a generations-old family recipe to brew beer in his kitchen. Inspired and unafraid to challenge conventional thinking about beer, Jim brought the recipe to life with hopes drinkers would appreciate the complex, full-flavor and started sampling the beer in Boston. He named the flagship brew Samuel Adams Boston Lager in recognition of one of our nation's founding fathers, a revolutionary man of independent and pioneering spirit. Today, Samuel Adams is one of the world's most awarded breweries and remains focused on crafting the highest quality beers through innovation and experimentation in the relentless pursuit of better. Samuel Adams remains dedicated to elevating and growing the American craft beer industry overall, including providing education and support for entrepreneurs and fellow brewers through its philanthropic program, Brewing the American Dream, which helps others pursue their American Dream.
