Instead of once a week I’ve been hitting the Brothers Brew Coffee Shop more frequently. My favorite donut, the Butternut Crunch was not running out by 9AM anymore. I figured maybe everyone is on a diet but since my 11 AM purchased Butternut Crunch was fresh and warm I realized that they are just making more of them since I moved to town.
Today, after having a Butternut Crunch yesterday I thought I should slow the pace down and I accidentally stumbled upon the perfect donut. There are some very good fresh donut shops on Cape Ann but hear me out. Or just look at it:
Brothers Brew is known for their bacon donut. A donut with a big piece of bacon on top. Rubber Duck reviewed that for Good morning Gloucester several years ago. An excellent donut but not one you can pack away every day unless you want to do a Shamoo the Whale act in Sandy Bay. But the threeway can be your daily go-to donut if you bring two friends.

BB has the best donuts! These are good, but… the cinnamon and the jelly are my favorites!

Butternut crunch used to be my favorite donut, second was chocolate glazed, third a good fresh made plain. I never got glazed – too light and sweet – no substance. A donut has not passed my lips since Mug Up days, and even then, not very often. I preferred the monkey bread.

I really shouldn’t call it a glazed donut. Not sure what Brothers Brew calls it. I just point. It isn’t an airy light donut. Very substantial.
But now you have me jonesing for Monkey Bread and it will be several weeks before Lattof Farm of Rockport will be serving up Monkey Bread. I think I got some one year before the Essex River Race and that is mid-April.
