The only thing better than having a beer? Well, it'd have to be having a beer with cigars at a tailgate party.

At Punch Cigars, we love tailgating because it allows us to indulge in our two deepest passions: beer and cigars.

That's why we've been taking our show on the road all season to co-host awesome tailgates with some of our favorite breweries. And next up on our Tailgate Like a Pro tour is Green Bench Brewery in St. Petersburg, FL, on November 9. Join us to celebrate the finest smokes on the planet (ours) and the delectable drinks of Green Bench Brewing Co.

Of course, you can't really go wrong with any Punch cigar and beer combo. But if you want a bold pairing for your next tailgate we've got a 4-pack of recommendations just for you:

Bench Life Premium Lager + Clasico
The undeniably refreshing flavor of the beer will lend a new smoking experience to Punch Clasico that is anything but normal.

Automatic Midnight Schwarzbier + Signature
The smoothness of Punch Signature heroes the bright, fruity, slightly spicy notes of the beer.

Ladders of Supremacy Hazy IPA + Knuckle Buster Maduro
The Knuckle Buster Maduro's bold profile contrasts nicely with the light and fruity notes of a Hazy IPA, allowing some beautiful Mosaic hop flavor to shine.

Wilbur Mixed-Culture Dark Ale + Diablo
The bold spices of the Punch Diablo should contrast a little with the woody fruity notes of the beer, making for a flavor bomb when combined.

Try these pairings – or experiment with some of your own – at our next tailgate event at Webb's City Cellar at Green Bench Brewing Company. And if you can't make it because of little problems like work or living halfway across the country, then good news: we'll be back with more tailgate parties this season. So keep an eye out because we may be headed to your town!

In the meantime, you can earn this super sweet badge by checking in at the event. Or, by checking in any Green Bench Brewing Co. beer between November 1 – December 1, 2023.
