Carvel Beer: Where To Buy And Enjoy

Carvel and Captain Lawrence Brewing have collaborated on a number of beers, including Cookie O'Puss Pastry Stout and Cookie Puss Milkshake IPA.

The Cookie O'Puss Pastry Stout is available across the east coast, while the Cookie Puss Milkshake IPA is only available in New York State.

Captain Lawrence Brewing Co. in Elmsford, New York

Captain Lawrence Brewing Co. was founded in 2006 by Scott Vaccaro, and brews a wide range of beer styles, producing as many as one hundred brands in a year. In 2019, the brewery collaborated with Carvel to create two limited-edition beers inspired by the iconic 1970s Carvel character, Cookie Puss, a space alien who comes from Planet Birthday and has cookies for eyes and an ice cream cone nose. The beers, Cookie Puss Birthday Beer and Cookie O'Puss St. Patrick's Day Stout, were available for pre-order online at CPtheBeer.com for $18 for a four-pack, with pick-up at the Elmsford brewery.

The Cookie O'Puss Pastry Stout was available wherever Captain Lawrence is sold, across the east coast, while the Cookie Puss Milkshake IPA was only available in New York State due to the closure of the TTB, which regulates interstate beer sales, during the government shutdown. The Cookie Puss beer was initially only available in New York State, but given the past demand for the beer, the partnership was likely to continue, with the goal of brewing Cookie Puss again for Carvel's 85th birthday in May 2019.

Carvel's 85th birthday

In 2019, Carvel celebrated its 85th birthday with a double beer collaboration with Captain Lawrence Brewing. The Cookie O'Puss Pastry Stout was available wherever Captain Lawrence is sold across the east coast, including Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Washington DC, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Virginia. The Cookie Puss Milkshake IPA was only available in New York State. Both beers were inspired by the iconic 1970s Carvel character, Cookie Puss, a space alien from Planet Birthday with cookies for eyes and an ice cream cone nose. The beers were available for pre-order from CPtheBeer.com for $18 for a four-pack, with pick-up at the Elmsford-based Captain Lawrence brewery.

Captain Lawrence and Carvel's double beer collaboration

Captain Lawrence Brewing and Carvel Ice Cream announced a double beer collaboration in 2019 to celebrate Carvel's 85th birthday. The two limited-edition beers were inspired by the iconic 1970s Carvel character, Cookie Puss, a space alien with cookies for eyes and an ice cream cone nose. The beers were a Cookie Puss Milkshake IPA and a Cookie O'Puss Pastry Stout, the latter being Cookie Puss's St Patrick's Day persona. The beers were available to pre-order from CPtheBeer.com for $18 for a four-pack, with pick-up at the Elmsford-based Captain Lawrence brewery. The Cookie O'Puss Pastry Stout was available wherever Captain Lawrence is sold across the east coast, including Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Washington DC, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Virginia. The Cookie Puss Milkshake IPA was only available in New York State due to the closure of the TTB, which regulates interstate beer sales, during the government shutdown.

The collaboration built on the success of the previous year's Fudgie the Beer, which was also a collaboration between Captain Lawrence and Carvel. Scott Vaccaro, who founded Captain Lawrence in 2006, said:

> "We’ve seen a number of other well-known brands doing beer collaborations since we did Fudgie together last year. Some of those were probably more publicity stunts than they were serious beer. Our goal has been to make thought-out beers that we know our fans will enjoy and which are good vehicles for expressing the character of both Captain Lawrence and the Carvel cakes that inspired them."

Cookie O'Puss St. Patrick's Day Stout

The beer was initially available for pre-order from CPtheBeer.com for local pick-up at the Elmsford-based Captain Lawrence brewery. It is now available wherever Captain Lawrence is sold across the east coast, including Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Washington DC, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Virginia.

The stout has been described as a "thought-out beer" by Captain Lawrence, who aimed to create a beverage that would be enjoyed by fans and express the character of both the brewery and the Carvel cakes that inspired it. The previous year's collaboration, Fudgie the Beer, was a success and paved the way for this festive release.
