Making Mealtime Meaningful: Discover how we're giving back with the 12T Cares program →

The worldwide pandemic has changed travel plans for people everywhere, including those who had been looking forward to a trip to Disneyland or Disney World. Some of those trips had been in the making for many years, and it can be heartbreaking when you have to watch that ship sail. If you happen to fall in that category, there is something to help make the time at home a little easier: Dole Whip beer.

It seems as if a brewmaster has found a way to make the Disney treat into a beer flavor. Ever since 1968, Dole Whip has been a go-to treat at the parks. It is made from pineapple juice, frozen pineapple, and vanilla soft serve and it instantly put you in mind of Disney. You can always make the treat at home, but why not take things to the next level and enjoy the beer?

This is not the first time that Dole Whip has been used as a theme for an adult beverage. The beer, available from Gainesville, Florida’s First Magnitude Brewing Co., is rather unique. It is a Dole Whip Sour, and it is everything good that we enjoy about the frozen treat, even if we have to enjoy it without Mickey Mouse.

🍦🍍𝓓𝓞𝓛𝓔 𝓦𝓗𝓘𝓟 𝓢𝓞𝓤𝓡🍍🍦 Today at 2PM we're releasing the latest in our flavors of summer series of sours. Brewed using *actual Dole Whip* mix, pineapple puree, and milk sugar, this beer tastes just like the iconic pineapple soft serve served at Disney. This beer is a creamy, dreamy sour that isn't too sweet or tart, it's just the right balance and is packed with pineapple goodness! The best part is, you can pick-up right here in Gainesville, you don't need to travel to Orlando! Place your order at bit.ly/FMorder (link in bio) and then pick up in our safe, clean, and fun brewery drive-thru.

As you can imagine, Dole Whip Sour didn’t stay on the shelves for long. Don’t be too sad over the situation, however, Popsugar reports that First Magnitude Brewing Co. is going to be brewing it again.

First Magnitude has a number of other creative brews that you may want to try, including Cherry Limeade Sour made with real cherries!

Just in time for the weekend, we've got the perfect poolside pucker-up-er! Pick up a 4-pack of our Cherry Limeade Sour to help you get through yard work, or to keep you cool while you have some fun in the sun This gorgeous, tart sour comes in at 6.1% ABV and is popping with refreshing flavors from real sweet cherries and lime. It may upset the beer purists, but we wouldn't be mad if you dressed it up with fresh fruit in the glass 😉. You can order your 4-pack at bit.ly/FMorder (link in bio) and then swoop through the brewery drive-thru (bring your pup, we'll have a treat waiting) to get your weekend started right!

The Black is Beautiful stout is worth trying, and 100% of the proceeds support racial equality in Gainesville.

It may just be worth a trip to Gainesville, where you can order on their website and then pick it up at the drive-thru. They even have a food truck in the making.
