Popular Detroit Paczki Beers Return With 2 New Flavors: How To Order

DETROIT — A Detroit brewing company is bringing back its popular paczki beers, which sell out each year, according to a news release.
Eastern Market Brewing Company's paczki beers this year will feature two new flavors, cherry and lemon, and like last year, both are packed with real fruit and a generous helping of vanilla cream, according to the release.
"Back in 2021, we stumbled on something special. We made a small, one-off batch of paczki beer, and it sold out immediately. Then in 2022, we doubled our production, and again, sold out," Eastern Market Brewing Company founder Dayne Bartscht said. "Last year, we doubled production one more time, and moved to a pre-order process limiting how much each customer could buy. Sold out. We had no idea how much Detroiters loved pączki, but we sure do now. It’s wonderful."
