Shmaltz Brewing is boldly going where no beer has gone before.
The brewery’s celebrating the 50th anniversary of the original Star Trek with two limited-edition ales, Golden Anniversary Ale: The Trouble With Tribbles and Golden Anniversary Ale: Voyage To The Northeast Quadrant.
Your local Trekkie can explain both titles, which are based on iconic Star Trek episodes. The beers will debut at this week’s ComicCon, the massive sci-fi/fantasy convention in San Diego.
