Newport, Ore. – Rogue Ales announces the creation of the ultimate stocking stuffer with the release of Rogue Voodoo Doughnut Mango Astronaut Ale, the latest in its line of doughnut inspired ales. This newest doughnut ale collision, with fellow rogues at Voodoo Doughnuts, is hitting shelves around the world now.

In this collision of crazies, Rogue teams up again with world-famous Voodoo Doughnuts to celebrate two of the greatest inventions on planet earth: beer and doughnuts. Rogue Voodoo Doughnut Mango Astronaut Ale was inspired by the Voodoo Doughnut Mango Tango, a doughnut filled with mango jelly and topped with vanilla frosting and a tangy orange powder.

“Rogue approached us five years ago and wanted to make a beer that tasted like our doughnuts. After a lot of trial and error, we created Bacon Maple Ale and it’s been a great collision ever since,” said Kenneth “Cat Daddy” Pogson, co-founder of Voodoo Doughnuts.

“We just got together to see what would happen. As it turns out, good things come in pink boxes and pink bottles,” added Tres Shannon, co-founder of Voodoo Doughnuts.

Voodoo Doughnut Mango Astronaut Ale is now available in pink 750 ml bottles worldwide, no space travel required. For more information visit rogue.com.
