Well ive opened the Brewdog arran with some vanilla ice cream ... All rather odd ... Very creamy very smooth the vanilla in the beer is highlighted with the Vanilla ice cream but once the ice cream flavour drops out the wiskey seems to show more than just drinking the beer on its own ... Its only in the Linger that a light chocolate roast come through ...

On the Down side the Ice Cream makes me drink it faster, which is no way to treat a 10% ale.

My initial impression upon reading the subject line was to point out that FG is almost always above 1.0, and therefore, you are mistaken.

Yes, it does. An unopened can of beer will remain afloat while the rest of the contents of your canoe may or may not.

Snake River Brewing in Jackson Hole, WY offers ice cream floats with their Zonker Stout. I’ve had it a few times, yummmmmm!
