Craft Brewer Buys All the Count Chocula, Cereal Lovers Confused and Sad
A craft brewer in Fort Collins, Colorado caused quite an uproar among seasonal cereal fans when it bought a grocery store's entire supply of Count Chocula cereal earlier this month
The brewer snatched up all the spooky cereal— a limited edition favorite—to brew some special beer, causing at least one resident to write into the Fort Collins Coloradoan to proclaim their disappointment.
"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 in a letter to the editor.
In addition to beers made from Golden Grahams, Reese's Puffs, and Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Black Bottle Brewery brews a special beer called Cearealiously Count Chocula, and needed as much cereal as they could get their hands on.
Despite the brewer's huge purchase, the Coloradoan reports that other grocery stores in the vicinity have plenty of Count Chocula to go around. If you want it, you gotta fight for it, residents of Fort Collins.
