CMBC Brews and Girl Scout Cookies
It’s that time of year again, and we couldn’t be happier!
Throngs of brown- and green-clad girls set up shop in front of every grocery store and Wawa in the known universe, hawking their delectable cookies and learning valuable entrepreneurial skills along the way.
They’re better for it. We’re ten pounds heavier.
Either way, we hit up the Brew Crew and asked them to pair their favorite Girl Scout cookie with their favorite CMBC brew, and the results will send you into the Tasting Room for a few growler fills and then directly to the nearest grocery store.

Thanks-a-Lot and New Year’s Resolution
“Both are clean and crisp. Simple in a way. Traditional.”
Scott Armato, Content Marketing Coordinator
S’mores and Honey Porter
“Mmm! Adding honey to that already delicious mix of chocolate, marshmallow, and graham cracker is exactly how I want to spend every single snow day from now until the end of time.”
Mark Graves, Packaging Manager
Caramel deLites and King Porter Stomp, Chocolate Porter
“Samoas are the top of the food chain when it comes to girl scout cookies, and when you are talking decadence, nothing pairs better than our King Porter Stomp.”
Kristen Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore Taylor IV, Marketing Assistant
Lemonades and Always Ready
“The sweetness of the icing paired with the citrus notes of Always Ready is simply the zest! Makes for a pairing that will help you squeeze the day. After a few sips, you’ll be in the right frame of rind. You may even want to enjoy this apeeling combo twenty-four lemon.”
Craig Tropp, Warehouse Manager
Peanut Butter Sandwich and King Porter Stomp, Chocolate Porter
“Peanut butter and chocolate go together as well as peanut butter and jelly, so I’d go with a pairing of a box (yes a whole box) of Do-si-dos with our always drinkable King Porter Stomp.”
Lisa Shriver, Barback
Peanut Butter Sandwich and Apple Bomb
“It’s like a good PB&J, savory with fruit.”
Swing down to the Tasting Room to fill your growlers! That is, except for King Porter Stomp — we kicked it at the brewery, but it’s still available out in the wild. Check our Beer Finder for the store nearest you!
