Donna's Pickle Beer

Donna's Pickle Beer puts real pickle brine into a 4.4% ABV golden lager. The result is a canned beer for people who want dill and salt alongside the usual beer flavor. It can be drunk on its own or used in a michelada.

Josh Jancewicz created the brand with Scott Baird. Its name comes from Josh's mother, Donna, and its first launch party fell on her birthday in 2023. Josh's cousin Holly Danko joined him in the Tank. They asked for $250,000 in exchange for 2.5% of the business.

In its October 26, 2026 announcement, Donna's reported more than 2,100 active accounts and 559 retail placements across 95 chains. Its outlets included Disneyland, Petco Park and the United Center. For someone who discovered the beer on television, those venues and its retail network offered ways to find it beyond the company's online shop.
