Businesses are ready for April’s total solar eclipse with celestial-themed doughnuts and beer
Associated PressNEW YORK — Eclipse-themed beer. With April 8’s total solar eclipse right around the corner, businesses are ready for the celestial event that will dim skies along a generous path across North America. After the 2017 eclipse, “I marked my calendar,” said Sam McNulty, co-founder of Market Garden Brewery in Cleveland, which is in the eclipse path this time and will see nearly four minutes of dimmed skies. Cleveland-based Market Garden Brewery has partnered with Midwest grocery chain Heinen’s to sell cans of hazy IPA called “The Totality,” shown in this photo, ahead of the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024. In Ohio’s Butler County, a shop called The Donut Dude will have an “Eclipse Donut Special” that shows the eclipse’s stages as the sun disappears behind the moon.
