Whether you’re surreptitiously polishing off a gingerbread man while standing over the sink in a dark kitchen, or sharing a platter of homemade goodies with loved ones at your holiday table, cookie season has arrived. You can pair yours with wines like Chardonnay or Cabernet Sauvignon. Or you can highlight fudgy, buttery, or fruity notes with a pour of your favorite beer. Stouts, porters, lambics, and blonde ales are all excellent options for your dessert course. Check out VinePair’s cookie-and-beer pairing guide, and raise a glass to the season.
