Get ready, coffee and beer fans! For the fourth straight year in a row, Dunkin' Donuts and Harpoon Brewery will team up for a new line of seasonal drinks!
Harpoon And Dunkin’ Collaborate
That's right! Dunkin' and Harpoon Brewery have a whole new batch of flavors for you! Three new beers will debut this fall alongside the beloved Harpoon Dunkin' Pumpkin Spiced Latte Ale. And, as always, they will all be made with coffee, donuts, or matcha tea from Dunkin'! The new flavors will include a Blueberry Matcha IPA, Maple Crème Blonde Ale, and Midnight American Porter. Beer and coffee fans can pick up the Harpoon Dunkin' Dozen beer packs (which include three cans of each flavor) starting on September 21, wherever Harpoon is sold.
Beer fans might be interested to know exactly how much alcohol comes in each beer. Well, the Pumpkin Spiced Latte Ale, the returning favorite, comes in at 5.2% ABV. However, reviewers say it doesn't taste like it, as it's made with Dunkin' coffee, real pumpkin puree, cinnamon, and a bit of cream for an excellent finish. Next up is the Maple Crème Blonde Ale, which comes in at 5.5% ABV. As you might imagine, Dunkin' and Harpoon use real maple syrup in this one for a sweet taste.
Are you looking for something a little stronger? The two companies have you covered! The Midnight American Porter, similar to last year's OG Dunkin' Coffee Porter, comes in at 6% ABV and features notes of dark chocolate and espresso. Finally, the Blueberry Matcha IPA, inspired by Dunkin's Blueberry Matcha Latte, rounds out the new beers at 6.6% ABV.
Love the sound of these new beers and live in Boston? Well, you can participate in another Harpoon and Dunkin' collaboration: a walk-thru, instead of a drive-thru!
A Brand-New "Walk-Thru"
To celebrate the launch of the new beers, the companies will collaborate on the first-ever Dunkin' Walk-Thru! The local pop-up experience at Harpoon Brewery in Boston will give die-hard fans a chance to order a pack of the new beers to go. Those who attend will also earn something a little special! Anyone who purchases the new beer pack will receive a free Dunkin' IPA Donut "filled with a Harpoon IPA jelly and topped with a candied malt crumble." It's also the first Dunkin' treat ever made with beer as an ingredient!
Sound like fun? Check out the Harpoon website for all the information on the event, which will occur in early September! Boston-area residents can also head to a local Buffalo Wild Wings, which will have the new beers on draft. If you don't live in Boston, no worries. You can use the Store Locator on the Harpoon website to find out where you can pick up the beer packs near you. Meanwhile, you can find the Dunkin' Pumpkin beer on draft at Buffalo Wild Wings across the country.
