Limited-Edition Boston Marathon Donut Makes Its Return

BOSTON, MA — Just in time for race weekend in Boston, two Massachusetts-based companies are collaborating for a celebratory sweet treat.

The seasonal release will be available from Thursday through Marathon Monday at all three Kane's Donuts locations: on Lincoln Ave and Rt. 1 in Saugus and Boston's Financial District.

The 26.2 Brew Donut features Samuel Adams’ 26.2 brew, an ale brewed with sea salt and coriander. The donut is crafted as a light, yeast-style treat, finished with a glaze made by reducing Samuel Adams 26.2 and blending it into Kane’s signature honey glaze.

Organizers note that all alcohol is cooked off during the baking process, leaving only the brew's signature taste without the buzz.
