E-Malt.com News article: USA, MD: Full Tilt Brewing releases Berger Cookie Chocolate Stout

Full Tilt Brewing (FTB), Baltimore’s newest craft beer producer, has announced the initial release of their first winter seasonal, “Berger Cookie Chocolate Stout.” Their newest addition will be unveiled on Friday, November 15, Baltimore News Journal reports.

Full Tilt Brewing tries to incorporate as much Charm City as possible into their beers as a tribute to the city. They say it only made sense that, when it came time to brew a stout, they would incorporate Baltimore’s legendary dessert, the Berger Cookie.

The Berger Cookie can be traced back to 1835 when German immigrant Henry Berger arrived in the U.S. and opened a bakery in East Baltimore. The Berger Cookie recipe has been owned and baked by DeBaufre Bakeries Inc. since 1969, becoming the go-to fudge treat around Baltimore and earning the nickname, “The Anytime Cookie.”
