These days, when it comes to weird food, ask and you shall receive. Oreo is releasing Game of Thrones-themed cookies. Jalepeño Peanut M&Ms exist now. And a brewery in Virginia introduced a beer inspired by Lucky Charms cereal.
Smartmouth Brewing Company brewed up a new IPA using marshmallows just like those colorful, dehydrated chunks of sweetness you’d pick out of the Lucky Charms box. It’s called Saturday Morning, because that’s what Saturday mornings used to be for: Rushing downstairs at an ungodly early hour early to pour yourself the first of three bowls of sugary cereal while watching bad cartoons on Nickelodeon. Ah, the good old days.
To achieve the beer’s flavor, Smartmouth said it added toasted marshmallows and cereal marshmallows to the mash. It teased a photo of Saturday Morning in an Instagram post.

Unfortunately, you’ll have to head down to Norfolk, Virginia, to get your sugar-rush-slash-alcohol-buzz, where Smartmouth is releasing the beer on Saturday, March 2. It will be available on draft at the brewery’s two locations and in 16 oz. cans in the city. According to Delish.com, the brewery is also hosting a series of events mark the launch of the beer, with board games, a comic-book stand and a Super Smash Bros. Tournament.
Smartmouth gave Saturday Morning a tagline echoing Lucky Charms’—instead of “magically delicious,” this IPA is “magically ridiculous.” That sounds about right. Hopefully, someone will create an Apple Jacks Amber and a Fruit Loops Lager to round out the pack and make breakfast beer a lot more nostalgic.
