Depending on who you talk to, making ice cream floats with beer is either a genius idea that has never been thought up before or an amazing mistake happen upon after drink too many beers. The key is to choose either a hearty Stout, which is more on the toasty, roasty and maltier side, or stick to a beer that is slightly sweet/tart and packed with juicy fruit flavor. Here we offer you one version of recipe that tends toward the side of more sweeter and juicier fruit: vanilla ice cream (the safest option) with our Orange Creamsicle Milkshake IPA.
