A pint of craft beer will have a slightly sentimental touch this month at area Mancy's restaurants, as the local restaurateurs partner with Maumee Bay Brewing Company with a series of special drafts in honor of their local history in the food industry. Papou's Pale Ale, a dry-hopped English malt with a citrus finish named for grandfather and 1921 founder of the Mancy's restaurant tradition Gus Mancy, is the first release in a four-part collaboration and is available through Memorial Day. There will be a brew for every season — the next will be showcased in early June — and each iteration will be available at all area Mancy's restaurants. "[There's] a little bit of a story behind each beer," says Mancy's Italian operator/owner George Mancy. "With craft beer growing, this is something we always wanted to do." $5 a pint.
