The Perfect Pair Series brings together Wayward Lane beer and the craft of local producers we love. Each month features a new partner and a curated tasting designed to highlight their creations alongside ours.

This month we’re teaming up with Sleepy Forest Bakeshop for the third time, and for good reason. Their pastries have that handmade, nostalgic feel while still being creative and deeply flavorful. Soft textures, balanced sweetness, and a little bit of magic in every bite.

We’re building this tasting around five of their mini doughnuts, each paired with a four ounce pour of Wayward Lane beer chosen to complement the flavors and textures of the bake.

The format is simple:
Five mini doughnuts, five small beers, one delicious experience.

The Perfect Pair Series continues each month with a new collaboration, new flavors, and a new way to experience Wayward Lane beer.
