Cookies are great: They come in a variety of designs and with a selection of nuts, raisins, chocolate pieces, marshmallows, caramel, coconut, sesame, oats, dried fruits and a wide variety of fillings, there is something for every taste. Cookies taste particularly delicious with a cup of cold milk or hot cocoa, but we’re also not averse to the version filled with fire-roasted marshmallows and chocolate. A biscuit is the perfect snack between meals and goes well not only with cocoa, coffee and tea but also with beer.
With beer?
Actually! The team at the Spanish brewery Espiga not only enjoys eating cookies, they also enjoy brewing with them. Their latest creation is a barrel-aged Imperial Pastry Stout that not only contains barley, oats and wheat, water, yeast and Galena hops, but also vanilla, cocoa nibs and real biscuits. The handy pastries conjure up a strong aroma and a delicately melting sweetness in the brew. Matching this, Cookies Hole delivers a harmonious interplay of coffee notes, chocolate hints and a fine roasted aroma. Storage in rum barrels contributes notes of pickled raisins and a woody spice. A touch of vanilla combines the individual components into a tasty whole that reminds us of cookies and freshly baked cakes.
A real hit for all Cookie Monsters who are of age!
