The ice cream mavericks at Ben & Jerrys are teaming up with New Belgium Brewing again to create the latest in a line of ice-cream infused brews.

A Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ale is set to hit store shelves this fall but its not just another sweet brew.

New Belgium has pledged $50,000 from the beers sales to go toward Protect Our Winters (POW) a non-profit dedicated to raising awareness around climate change.

We are excited to be partnering once again with the good folks at Ben & Jerrys and POW, said New Belgium Director of Sustainability, Jenn Vervier. The beer in development tastes amazing and we look forward to talking about climate change and climate action. With the upcoming election and a new administration, year two is even more important than the first round. 

Craft beer and ice cream fans are already champing at the bit for the new beer.
