A popular Northern Kentucky brewery is partnering with a beloved Cincinnati bakery to create a new, limited-time stout for beer lovers with a sweet tooth.

Covington’s Braxton Brewing Co.’s new Opera Cream Stout, inspired by O’Bryonville’s The BonBonerie’s beloved Opera Cream Torte, is hitting Kroger’s shelves and Braxton’s taproom in early September. It’ll be available in a six-pack of 12-ounce cans for $10.99 while supplies last, says the brewery.

“The BonBonerie Opera Cream Cake is such an iconic and nostalgic Cincinnati flavor, and we’re so excited to launch this beer as the first of our new Cincinnati Favorites line,” Jake Rouse, co-founder and CEO of Braxton Brewing, said in a press release. “The BonBonerie brand has been serving customers for over 40 years and enjoys a robust history in Cincinnati. This beer represents such a unique flavor in Cincinnati Craft beer that we are honored to be working with The BonBonerie to launch the stout!”

Braxton Brewing will celebrate the stout’s launch with “Opera Fest” on Saturday, Sept. 30 in the Covington taproom.
