Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom partnered with a local brewing company to celebrate the park's new Iron Menace roller coaster.
The partnership with Illumination Brewing, which owns the Funk Brewing brand, combines the thrill of Northeast’s first dive roller coaster with craft brewing artistry.
Around mid-April, those twenty-one and older can enjoy Iron Menace lager at the park, as well as at Illuminations's tasting rooms, Shangy's in Emmaus, select local retailers, grocery stores and small beer distributors across Eastern Pennsylvania.
The company said the beer combines American barley, corn, and hops and also "embraces the rich history of the Lehigh Valley."
