In order to help Guinness bring people together for the most wonderful pints of the year this holiday season, Levain Bakery is partnering with the iconic beer brand to unveil a limited-edition holiday cookie tin that comes complete with Levain cookies – Dark Chocolate Peppermint, Two Chip Chocolate Chip and Dark Chocolate Chocolate Chip, all which pair with Guinness Draught Stout.
The deep notes of roasted coffee and chocolate in the beer complement the cookies’ flavors, balancing the sweetness and smoothness. These limited-time cookie tin collectibles will be available exclusively at Guinness’ Most Wonderful Pop-Up locations and Open Gate Brewery locations in Chicago and Baltimore for a limited time only.
“When Guinness invited us to team up on this indulgent pairing, we felt it was a unique and wonderful way to celebrate the holiday festivities,” says Lorna Sommerville, chief commercial officer for Levain Bakery. “We are excited to share our beloved cookies with Guinness fans to savor all season long.”
This month, Guinness is bringing the festive spirit to fans with the Most Wonderful Pop-Up of the Year, a limited run holiday experience featuring a Guinness tiny pub, Guinness x Levain collectible cookie tins and more exclusive merch. Those 21+ are invited to visit one of these locations:
- Boston at Faneuil Hall | Saturday, December 7th & Sunday, December 8th (2:00 – 8:00 PM ET)
- New York City at The Oculus | Friday, December 13th & Saturday, December 14th (2:00 – 7:30 PM ET)
In addition, Guinness’ Open Gate Breweries will brew a few special events all season long. Open Gate Brewery Baltimore is transforming its lawn into a Christmas Tree Lot and Holiday Market while Open Gate Brewery Chicago will host a series of Holiday Workshops every Sunday from now through the holiday season.
“This time of year is all about sharing quality time together over a round of pints,” says Joyce He, Guinness brand director. “For me, that first sip of a fresh pint of Guinness feels like coming home for the holidays, so that’s what we wanted to bring to life this season. Whether you’re gathered around at home with family or enjoying a night out with friends, here’s to making every moment a little bit more special.”
