Shmaltz Star Trek: The Next Generation Captain's Holiday!

Introducing... Star Trek: The Next Generation Captain's Holiday! This tropical and citrus ale was brewed with 2-Row, Red-X, Victory, Flaked Oats malts as well as Citra and Amarillo hops. The beer was also brewed with citrus peel and lime and falls at a sessionable 5.5% ABV.

If you're unfamiliar with this namesake episode, the bio on IMDB reads, "After mediating a difficult trade agreement, Captain Picard is encouraged to take a much needed rest on a vacationing planet, where he's visited by a strange race from the future, in search of a dangerous weapon."  Check out more information about the episode here! 

You don’t have to be a Starfleet Captain or negotiate a difficult trade agreement between the Gemarians and the Dachlyds to deserve a little rest and relaxation. In the Star Trek™: The Next Generation episode “Captain’s Holiday”, the crew convinces Captain Picard to take a much needed vacation on the pleasure planet Risa. Number One (Commander Riker) tricks the Captain into buying a small statue called a Horga’hn when he arrives. After being accosted by a steady stream of women, he is told that displaying the statue in public suggests he is seeking Jamaharon. Whether for Jamaharon or simpler moments of pleasure, our tropical getaway should be perfect for kicking back and escaping the stresses of everyday life here on Earth. Enjoy the lemon, lime and orange citrus hop flavors of Captain’s Holiday Ale and engage in a well deserved vacation with every sip.
