Shock Top & Spirit Halloween team up on Candy Corn Wheat

By Reid Ramsay · September 16, 2026 · 1 min read

A Shock Top and Spirit Halloween collaboration we didn’t see coming this year, arriving in two parts. One you drink, and one you wear.

Let’s tackle the beer first. Shock Top is no stranger to seasonal/experimental flavors. Past flavors include Twisted Pretzel Wheat, Shockolate Wheat, Pumpkin, and Spiced Banana Wheat, to name a few.

This year, Shock Top has chosen Halloween’s most polarizing candy – Candy Corn, to make Shock Top Candy Corn Wheat Ale. It’s a 5% ABV seasonal release built for Halloween drinking, and pre-gaming for your haunted house runs. Love candy corn but wish it came with a buzz? Well, here you go. Hate candy corn? Try it anyway.

Here is where it either gets weirder or cooler. Spirit Halloween is now offering an exclusive Shock Top Halloween Wedgehead costume, in case you want to dress like the beers you will be drinking. Wedgehead is a Spirit Halloween online exclusive, and will run you $69.99.

Shock Top Candy Corn Wheat Ale is hitting shelves nationally now, in 12-oz 6-packs.

Happy Halloween 🎃
