Beer float? Strange, yes – but interesting enough to be worth the risk. Really.
This version uses Guinness and coffee ice cream; neither are crowd-pleasers, so experiment with flavors and brews to your heart’s content.
This concoction barely calls for instruction, but here goes:
- Scoop some ice cream into a frosted mug.
- Slowly pour the beer, stout, or ale over the ice cream.
- Top with chocolate or caramel syrup.

oh my gosh! Ice cream and beer? yay!
This works for me! I remember Steinbeck writing about “Doc” trying one in, I believe, Cannery Row. In the novel, he was disappointed but I’m guessing he didn’t use Guinness and Coffee Ice cream; two of my favorites. In fact, ale and ice cream are food groups for me. Congratulations on a great blog.
Thanks so much! Glad you like it
I asked my wife to pick up some coffee ice cream as I always have Guiness on had or I may try some of my own Imperial Stout. 🙂
