My grandpa wanted a root beer float so I took out a beer, opened the cap and handed him the bottle and he poured the beer into his float thinking it was root beer. Lets just say he was in for a surprise and said it tasted terrible.

Anyone had a good beer float?

ive had many beer floats. you have to use a nut brown ale. Then it actually tastes really good. its even in mens health http://blogs.menshealth.com/guy-gourmet/pour-a-beer-float-for-st-pat%E2%80%99s-day/2012/03/15/

Ive never read cannery row but I heard it was pretty good. Tortilla flat is one of my favorites.

He is 65 and knows whats going on. I actually thought that he would notice it was beer he was pouring into his glass. I ended up drinking the beer float cause I didn't want to wast the beer. It wasn't that bad after I drank most of the beer and there was a little tinge of beer taste along with the vanilla ice cream.

Made him a new float though.

Also I was telling him he should have a beer float when I was making my float. Afterwards he knew he had poured beer into his mug then took a sip to see how it tasted.

Beer floats are delicious, if made right. I usually use some kind of porter and a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

I can only see this working with a super chocolate/coffee porter, but even then it probably won't be great. I always avoid milk and alcohol.

The restaurant at Stone Brewing gives you a stout float on your birthday. Assuming you're of age that is. Tastes great. I've made it with Rouge hazelnut brown too.

I thought this would have to do with alcohol floating in water, or maybe its the other way around. Sort of disappoint
