CANTON, Mass. — Dunkin' Donuts wants to warm up customers on the winter solstice, the darkest day of the year, with a new beer made from its Dark Roast coffee beans.
The Canton, Massachusetts-based donut chain is partnering up with nearby Wormtown Brewery in Worchester, a local craft brewery, to make as stout-style beer called DDark Roasted Brew, according to a company statement.
"This decadent stout-style beer features full-roasted coffee flavor reminiscent of freshly-ground beans with a creamy mouthfeel," the statement said.

It's the second beer of the year for Dunkin Donuts. It joined up with a North Carolina-based brewer in September to create what it billed as the first beer to use "original Dunkin' Donuts flavorings," according to MSN.
