This New Ben & Jerry’s-Flavored Beer Might Literally Save the Planet

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Rutgers chapter.

Ben & Jerry’s and New Belgium are back at it again. You might remember back in fall 2015 when the two companies partnered up to create a beer and beer-infused ice cream flavor, Salted Caramel Brownie Ale. They’ve taken this creativity to a new level and have created a beer with one of everybody’s favorite flavors, chocolate chip cookie dough. Who doesn’t have a weakness for cookie dough? Say hello to Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ale. Just let that sink in for a minute.

Not only does this beer have two of our favorite things, chocolate chip cookie dough and beer, but you can feel even better when you buy a case because $50,000 of the proceeds go toward Protect Our Winters, the leading advocates to stop climate change and keep winter sports alive. Being able to help out this amazing environmental cause makes this new beer even more exciting and has us counting down the days until its arrival this fall.
