Craft beer cupcake: lager cake, bourbon buttercream, chocolate-covered potato chip!

Plus a free Chocolate City draft beer Thursday night for those in Washington, DC!



Here's the scoop on the collaboration between DC bakery Hello Cupcake and Chocolate City Beer, via City Paper blog Young & Hungry. They're $3.50 and will be sold from this Friday, January 27th, through February 15th, so don't delay. Nellie's Sports Bar is at 900 U Street, NW.
Before DC was known for their craft brews, they were recognized for their craft cupcakeries. This week, two iconic DC brands will collaborate to create a new dessert. DC Love Child, a decadent cupcake made with Chocolate City Beer, will be sold starting Friday in Hello Cupcake’s Dupont and Capitol Hill locations.

DC Love Child, the first cupcake to be made with a DC craft beer, is a rich chocolate lager cake with bourbon buttercream frosting topped with a chocolate covered potato chip. The batter is created with Chocolate City’s, Cerveza Nacional, a unique take on a traditional dark, malty, creamy, smooth and slightly roasted Vienna Lager.

Hello Cupcake and Chocolate City Beer will celebrate their offspring with a “Shot Gun Wedding” on Thursday night at Nellie’s Sports Bar. From 7 to 9 p.m. guests will get taste a sneak preview of the cupcake along with a free Chocolate City Draft.
