Child me imagined the Milky Way as a mighty stream of delicious dairy, glittering with soft serve and milkshakes galore. I fantasized about boarding a spaceship armed with a giant spoon and straw. 

Adult me knows that the Milky Way is our own galaxy, sparkling before us with the power of 100 billion planets and 100,000 million stars. 

Though, thanks to New York’s resident innovators at Evil Twin and their To the Milky Way & Back Milkshake IPA, I can still bound through celestial bodies of creamy delight!

At least, my taste buds sure can! The acclaimed brewers added generous amounts of real fruit on top of their tropical hop base, along with silky lactose and vanilla. The result is a galaxy of flavor even more delectable than my wildest thoughts could conjure! 

Juicy peach and softly tangy raspberry burst upfront, followed swiftly by bursting clementine and zesty lime. Let it linger all together on the tongue, and it’s reminiscent of a whipped cream-topped fruit salad!

But, unlike the actual Milky Way Galaxy, which is 13.51 billion years old, Evil Twin’s tropical milkshake concoction is poised to vanish pretty soon — you folks snatched up their last ‘Milky Way’ release in under 12 hours! Ready to jump on this flavorful adventure?
