In a third collaboration between The Grove Brewing Company and Colasanti’s, the latest version of Colasanti’s Donut Beer created great anticipation amongst craft imbibers as they lined up early outside of the Wigle Avenue restaurant in Kingsville on January 25.
Knowing that demand would be huge this year, head brewer Donavan McFadden and his brewing team put together a run that produced over 8,000 cans of the golden ale. It was estimated that over half of the cans had been accounted for in the first 30 minutes of the doors opening at The Grove.
McFadden shared that this ale is nostalgic for many of the customers as it brings back great memories that they had as kids at Colasanti’s Tropical Gardens. This year’s recipe had a slight tweak involving an upgrade in the cinnamon component to enhance the profile of the ale.
