Cookie Exchange at 1912 Brewing. The "Cookie Exchange" returns! This means 1912 Brewing is teaming up with Tucson Girls Pint Out, a local group dedicated to building a community of women who love craft beer. For the event, bake whatever cookies you want, bring them into 1912, and share and mingle with the ladies of Girls Pint Out. It's all the beer and cookies you could want, all at one event! I suggest oatmeal raisin or cranberry white chocolate. And don't forget to bring in your recipe as well. 5 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 4. 2045 N. Forbes Blvd.
