Label text Shiner Mint Chocolate Cookie:

Chock-full of flavor. Robust and full-bodied, this seasonal brew drinks like a smooth, velvety treat. Subtle notes of peppermint pair with semi-sweet chocolate for a brew that’s sure to tempt your tastebuds. With a chocolate aroma, a soft creamy head, and a slightly sweet finish, this brew is sure to go down smooth. – Prosit!”
