Colorado Craft Brewer Buys Fort Collins’ Count Chocula Cereal Supply to Put in Beer
For some people in Fort Collins, the annual arrival of Count Chocula cereal is a highlight of the year. So when shoppers in the Colorado town went searching for the monster-themed marshmallow delicacy, they were perturbed that they couldn’t find it at either of the local Albertsons locations. “Every year I greatly look forward to the month of October when I can purchase a few boxes of this delicious chococlatey [sic] goodness,” Kristen Clark wrote to the Coloradoan, adding that even though she’s a “vegetarian and organic food eater,” she gives that up at Halloween to get her Chocula fix. The culprit has finally stepped forward: Black Bottle Brewery admitted it scooped up the entire Chocula supply from two Albertsons stores in order to concoct the next variety in its Cerealiously beer series.
