No longer will we have to drown our sorrows with beer and cookie dough separate of one another… Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Beer now exists.
Thanks to Ben & Jerry’s and New Belgium Brewing, the ale will help save time as the sweetness and alcohol content makes us feel better. Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ale will be available this fall, with proceeds benefitting Protect Our Winters (POW), a non-profit working to raise awareness about climate change.

Nothing says, ‘America’ quite like a mass-produced, watered-down lager. Anheuser-Busch, although now owned by Belgians, knows this, and will temporarily rebrand Budweiser to be called “America.”
Apparently, this is a marketing stunt for what could be the most drink-inducing season in American history — the summer leading up to this year’s Presidential election. Bottles and cans of Budweiser were only slightly modified for the name-change — making them easily-recognizable for brand-faithful Bud-drinkers.
So, here’s to what could be the most American summer to ever America. Thanks, Belgium!

If you need to find the perfect gift for a thirsty chemist, look no further than Chemistry Drinkware.
Brought to us by Cognitive Surplus, the glassware is not only a convenient way to hold a drink, but has the molecular structure of the beverage printed on it.
So, those in the know will recognize their coffee ingredients as neochlorogenic acid, isovalerylaldehyde
furan-2-ylmethanethiol and guaiacol — while most of us just thinks it contains “that stuff that makes mornings suck less.” We’re both right.

Now, this is a chocolate bar we can get behind. Get behind, drink some beers, eat chocolate… that kinda thing.
Created by Carlsberg Beer, the Chocolate Bar is in response to a question that nobody’s ever asked… What if Carlsberg did chocolate bars? The answer is an edible drinking establishment that’s fully-functional, where patrons can enjoy a pint, while consuming the bar itself — right down to the glasses, coasters, and dart board.
The pop-up Carlsberg Chocolate Bar appeared briefly outside of the Old Truman Brewery in London. So you’ll just have to enjoy your confectionary chocolate bar that doesn’t serve beer.
